In a world where the global pandemic has cast a shadow over the lives of many, a new musical project emerges from Wellington, New Zealand, bringing with it a beacon of light and good vibes. Leonard, a fresh face in the electronic/pop scene, is here to make your days a little brighter with his slick productions and addicting choruses. His latest single, “Sold on You,” is a testament to his unique blend of house, funk, and pop elements, promising to be a must-listen for anyone looking to uplift their spirits. Leonard isn’t just another artist in the vast sea of music; he is a multi-talented musician who writes, sings, produces, and mixes his records. His journey into the music world took a significant turn when he was accepted to attend a week-long seminar with Grammy-winning producer Joe Chiccarelli (known for his work with the White Stripes, Vance Joy) in France. This experience ignited a passion in Leonard for producing and mixing, skills he would later use to craft his own sound. Before the pandemic hit, Leonard was known in Wellington’s indie-pop scene as a go-to producer and songwriter. However, the lockdowns put a halt to his production sessions with other artists, leading him to focus on his own pop project. It was during these first weeks of Covid lockdown that “Sold on You” was born. Created in his home studio, the song aims to inject some much-needed positivity into the lives of its listeners.”Sold on You” isn’t just a song; it’s a vibe. Written, produced, and mixed entirely by Leonard, this track was crafted with the sole purpose of bringing good vibes to its audience during a time of extreme hardship. The success of his first single, “Something Good,” which has garnered over 35,000 listens on Spotify, set a high bar, but Leonard continues to deliver with his summery hooks and innovative sound design. As if “Sold on You” wasn’t enough to solidify Leonard’s place in the music world, he’s back with his newest single, “Stay In Bed.” This track is a perfect blend of Leonard’s love for electronic genres and his pop writing sensibilities, once again showcasing his talent for producing, writing, and performing all aspects of his music. “Stay In Bed” is more than just a song; it’s a reflection of Leonard’s dedication to his craft and his ability to create captivating music from his studio in New Zealand. Leonard’s music is a journey through the landscapes of electronic and pop music, with each song serving as a milestone in his evolving career. From the vibrant energy of “Something Good” to the uplifting spirit of “Sold on You,” and now to the intimate vibes of “Stay In Bed,” Leonard proves that even in the darkest times, music can be a source of light and joy. His story is one of resilience, creativity, and the relentless pursuit of bringing good vibes to the world through music. As Leonard continues to develop his unique sound, one thing is clear: he is an artist to watch in the electronic/pop scene.
