Leon have gigged with Mylo, KT Tunstall and Hot Chip and have toured Europe with the Bloodhound Gang. The debut album, Uppers and Downers (released Summer 2006) has had a great reaction from radio and press alike; “A goddamn catchy little beggar.” - Garry Mulholland (Q Magazine, Observer Music Monthly) “Leon are a sweet band with a stiletto blade in each hand...good attitude.” – NME “Tuneful pop, so memorable, an achievement.” - Daily Mirror Single of the Week “Slick and scuzzy lo-fi pop rocking thats as cool and crisp as its fuzzy.” - Unpeeled Review. The singles from Uppers and Downers received radio play on XFM (playlist and session), Radio 2 (Jonathan Ross, Janice Long session), BBC6 Music and Kerrang FM. The recordings for the new EP (due out late summer) are a departure from the electronica tinged sound of the album, capturing more of the full, live band sound while keeping the all important big tunes. Leon are; Leon Black – Vocals and Guitar Lee Horsley – Keyboards Paul Whittington – Bass Jeff Davenport – Drums e-mail: info@whothehellisleon.com web: www.myspace.com/leontheband
