About Me

*A note about the blogs: View them one at a time. Several of them have music players attached, so if you click [View All Blogs Entries] then all the music players will play at once. Not Nice*

What do LEYA do? We rock. Plain and simple.

There's also a few other things we like. So, this here is LEYA/MySpace Conceptual Continuity. Figure out what that is and send a postcard to:

Our debut album, WATCH YOU DON'T TAKE OFF , was released APRIL 2006.

Leya have recently appeared alongside SNOW PATROL, THE FEELING, ORSON, DELAYS, FRANZ FERDINAND, THE SCISSOR SISTERS, MAROON 5 and JEM and have been touring the UK and Ireland with KUBB, EMBRACE, THE REVS, INTERPOL and REPUBLIC OF LOOSE.
