Биография

Robert Leslie is an indie-folk artist known for performing on streets across Europe, North Africa, and New York City. His alluring voice, soaring melodies, dense poetic imagery, and freewheeling approach to life have garnered him a large and loyal following. Born in NYC, raised in London and Amsterdam, Robert left home at a young age and spent two years supporting himself as a traveling street performer, ping-ponging with the seasons between northern Europe and Morocco, finally winding up in Brooklyn. Since arriving stateside he’s made himself a well-known figure in both the venues and the streets of NYC, and has been featured in the New York Daily News, Timeout! Magazine, Deli Mag (voted upcoming artist of the month), and various other blogs and publications. He’s toured across three continents and yodeled his heart out to crowds large & small. Robert's fourth LP, "Halfway Home", released Aug 5th 2022, is his first collaboration with industry heavyweights, with production by Perry Margouleff (Maroon 5, Paul Rodgers) and session performances by Tony Garnier (Bob Dylan, Tom Waits, Paul Simon), Scarlet Rivera (Bob Dylan), and Jake Sinclair (Weezer, Panic! at the Disco).
