Album artwork for LÉON by Leon

With effortless style equally reverent of dreamy sixties Laurel Canyon and modern day Europe, Swedish songstress LÉON projects the kind of understated confidence a non-chatty Quentin Tarantino character might have. Since emerging in 2015, LÉON has had a series of releases and countless performances. A trio of EPs—Treasure (2015), For You (2017), and Surround Me (2017)—announced her arrival as an international presence as she amassed over 300 million cumulative streams, made her North American late-night television debut on The Late Late Show with James Corden, and earned widespread critical acclaim with Vogue dubbing her “Sweden’s next big thing.” 2017 saw her launch the LÉON Recordings imprint, partner with BMG, and enlist the talents of production duo Electric Los Angeles to produce the bulk of her debut album. The vocalist acted as an arranger in the studio, directing elements of the instrumentation and even performing keys and analog synths. This body of work brings her full circle. For the first time, she gets to call all of the shots. It’s liberating and illuminates her work at its purest. That’s why it’ll connect. “I want people to listen and relate,” LÉON explains. “If my music could be somebody’s soundtrack, that’d be amazing.”
