“The Life I Love is Makin’ Music With My Friends…”
Background in a nutshell . . .
Since age 13, I have been entertaining people with my Music
…so I guess it’s been a little longer than 20+ years. At 13, I was singing on air for a broadcast on AM radio, and a few years later provided solo vocal work in Italian for television advertising in Switzerland, where I lived for two years.
In my early 20’s I was offered the “Girl Singer” role with three different Big Bands and found myself singing and grooving, for about two years, to the sounds of Tommy Dorsey, Glenn Miller, Stan Kenton etc. — while continuing my classical studies.
Classically trained, but LOVE the rhythms of Pop, Jazz, Swing and Bossa Nova
After that…Solo with Background Tracks, Swing/Jazz Duos, Trios, Quartets, and 7-piece groups performing Jazz, Pop, Swing, Bossa Nova — along with Inspirational Ceremonial music and Standards with a Classy, Jazzy Twist, all became the Music I have come to be known for — and I love every bit of it to this very day!

…the lovely singing voice of Leanne adds real glamour to the general ambience when she leans against the piano, red hair shining under the spotlight, and evokes romance with a sultry blues song.
