Shires is now signed with Green Hill Music in Nashville Tennessee along with his Jazz vocalist wife Jaimee Paul. Both artists work together for a beautiful blend of talents. Mostly emphasizing on standard and cool Jazz, they have both released albums under the direction of Jack Jezzro who has produced countless albums, and wo also graces both albums with his extraordinarily smooth guitar playing. Leading into his current partnership with Green Hill Music, Leif caught the eye of the "Godfather of Southern Gospel" ...Bill Gaither. Bill, (in concert with Greg Howard-VP of Green Hill) seeing Leif's potential, encouraged the label to release a project.
Now on his third record (second with Green Hill), Shires is continuously excited about his career. His debut label recording, "What a Wonderful World" fared well, paving the way to his first Christmas album "Cool Jazz Christmas" released in 2010.
