leigh also co-wrote the zac brown band singles `` goodbye in her eyes '' and `` sweet annie '' .
with leigh in demand as a co-writer , she continues to focus on her own musical output .
having independently released her ` counting skeletons ' in 2014 , leigh has been impressing audiences around the world with her new striking , genre-defying anthems .
