"Quality music has that God-given ability or power to transport the listener to another time and place beyond one’s current circumstances. Certain music genres lend themselves to this more than others. I’m thinking here of the celtic and ambient music of artists & bands such as Moya/Maire Brennan, Enya, Iona. Well, one now doesn’t have to look beyond our shores to find an artist who performs capably in these genres. I highly recommend the original music of Australian singer-songwriter Leoni Gardner. Leoni’s music has that depth and prophetic quality to it that is missing from much of today’s contemporary music. Her entire ministry is strongly Word-based and Word-inspired."

"Leoni Gardner - The singer/songwriter has carved her niche in Christian inspirational music with her Celtic sound. What is more noteworthy is her sense of prophetic urgency and her scriptural soundness. In her aptly titled Prepare ye The Way of The Lord CD production, her lyrics draw heavily from the Bible. The Sabbath, The Ten Commandments, Second Coming, and the Three Angels' Messages of Revelation 14, are all proclaimed in this package. The final item - cut 11, is the title track. "He's coming soon, He's coming soon! Repent, Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand / Prepare Ye the way of the Lord." The strident refrain, with the artist's soprano fluttering through the choir's crescendo is a convincing climax to a courageous and significant project."

"On 31st August 2009 the Brisbane Valley Uniting Church and Toogoolawah Baptist Church were blessed by the ministry of song and testimony of Leoni Gardner.  Her repertoire is a mixture of her own compositions and favourite Christian hymns performed with a prophetic quality and with a decidedly Celtic flavour. Leoni's presentation and attitude are most professional in every way. It is evident that her devotion to God, her heart of thanksgiving for Jesus work in her life, and the Holy Spirit's yearning that the people of God be ready for their Lord (...to make ready a people prepared for the Lord... Luke 1:17b), inspire her song writing and presentation. The beauty and humility of Leoni's spirit makes working with her a joy and I look forward to her returning again to the Brisbane Valley to minister in the future. I definitely recommend the ministry of Leoni Gardner to all who desire to know the refreshing of God in a new dimension in their lives and those of their congregations."
