When we were invited join in on her first tour in Toronto, we couldn’t say no. After the interview, our team had a great time with LÉON as she took the stage to perform cuts from her recent EP. Her EP, “Treasure” was released in October and already has over 1 million monthly Spotify listeners.
At the show she played all four songs off the EP and included a few new singles as well. In between songs, she shared how excited she was to be touring and told the crowd that just one year ago she was struggling to get her music out and felt like nothing was really happening in her life. It was all thanks to her producer Agrin Rahmani encouraging her to post her songs to Soundcloud that things started to change for the better!
We are so excited to see what the future holds for this talented singer! To stay up to date with LÉON follow her on socials on Twitter/Instagram: @itsleonleon and VEVO: Itsleonleonvevo.
We’re looking forward to hearing what you guys think of LÉON’s music be sure to send us a tweet @bestfan with your thoughts!
