Биография

Leroy Sanchez has always been an unconventional musician. Born and raised in Spain, Leroy truly came from humble beginnings. With his mother being a maid and his father, a carpenter, Leroy had to teach himself to play guitar and develop his voice entirely by ear. As a very introverted 15 year old with a burning need for self expression, Sanchez found a way to break that wall by uploading his first singing video on YouTube. He quickly garnered a following around the world and his voice and raw sensibility soon caught the attention of some of the top industry leaders. At age 19 the singer moved to the US to pursue his musical career. Ever since he’s collected upwards of half a billion YouTube views, over 45 million plays on streaming platforms and forged a constantly growing fanbase of over 6 million followers combined. His music has gained recognition from artists like Ed Sheeran, Shawn Mendes, Pharrell, Marc Anthony, and Quincy Jones. In 2016, Leroy was nominated not only for a Premios Juventud Award, but also two Teen Choice Awards. Since then he has headlined over 100 shows in over 20 countries, with sold out shows in LA, NYC, Toronto, Amsterdam, London, Madrid, and more. In 2018 Leroy co-wrote 2 Platinum singles in Spain - El No Soy Yo (Blas Canto) & Invisible (Malu). In May 2021 he made his debut in the acclaimed Eurovision Song Contest as a song-writer with Spain’s entry “Voy a Quedarme”.
