"The songs are a beautiful mix of meaningful pop and futuristic R&B" - Earmilk

"Leon's thing is lush but understated, bleak but beautiful downbeat atmopop and things are moving along but also upward, like the travelator leading to a first-floor Sainsbury's...[River Full of Liquor] very easily and confidently underlines the fact that Leon Else is a rather major talent." - Pop Justice

Today, UK Pop artist Leon Else premieres his full debut EP River Full of Liquor on Earmilk.com. PRESS HERE<http://www.earmilk.com/2014/07/02/leon-else-is-beautiful-in-a-river-full-of-liquor-premiere/> to listen! The collection will be released on July 8th, 2014 on Leon's own imprint, Skitzophonic Records. Title track, "River Full of Liquor" was released earlier this month and has been heating up over on BBC Radio 1 and 1xtra. Leon also recently had the honor of participating in BBC Radio 1xtra's tribute to Michael Jackson, covering the hit single "Billy Jean." PRESS HERE<http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p021k0nr> to listen to the broadcast.


Leon's music is a stunning blend of soul and contemporary R&B and puts his phenomenal vocals at the forefront. His creativity extends beyond penning lyrics as he draws influence from gothic biographical illustrations that give a subtle nod to Tim Burton's technique, depicted in the video for "River Full of Liquor" that echoes the songs lyrically dark undertones.

Since the release of his debut single "Protocol" in January, 24-year-old singer-songwriter Leon Else has won the esteem of the music industry's key influencers - and the hearts of the fashion world's most renowned designers. Leon was recently championed as "Next Hype" by Zane Lowe of BBC Radio 1, and was selected to play their stage at this year's Radio 1 Big Weekend alongside Katy Perry, Pharrell Williams and Sam Smith among others. The cheeky chappy artist hails from Margate and is managed by Turn First Artists, the musical innovators behind the likes of Rita Ora and Iggy Azalea.

Leon is also making waves this year in the fashion industry, and was named by GQ UK as most stylish man at Milan Fashion week in January. More recently Leon attended Milan and Paris June fashion weeks for Men's Spring/Summer and was dressed by Roberto Cavalli where he sat next to Steven Tyler & Joe Perry of Aerosmith, Fendi, DSquared2 and Diesel Black Gold where he sat next to Joe Jonas.
