LeonVest is the phenomenal SF Bay Area songwriting duo who recently took the music industry by surprise with their hit single, "It Would Be You". The song, from their first CD "So Blue", reached #6 nationally on FMQB's AC charts in March of 2006, putting music lovers and industry execs on serious notice.
Along with their band of world class musicians, LeonVest has accomplished a feat seen only rarely in the life of independent artists. This March, they were the only indie act to find themselves in ACQB's TOP TEN - ahead of Santana, Cold Play and
Alanis Morissette and alongside Goo Goo Dolls, James Blunt and Kelly Clarkson.
LeonVest's compellingly original material hearkens straight out of the SF Bay Area music scene - and that's just what their San Francisco Bay Area fans want to hear. As songwriters, the team of Sandy Leon Vest and James Vest are as gifted as they are prolific. (See Band Info)
Leon Vest is presently recording their upcoming CD, Alive by Request, at Red Rooster Recording Studio in Berkeley with their band (featuring saxophonist Paul McCandless, of Bela Fleck and Oregon).
