I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
Leighton studied Popular Music & Recording at Salford University in Manchester, & spent three years national touring as pianist for Latin/Salsa outfit 'Descarga'. After completing his course in summer 2001, he returned home to the Isle of Skye to spend a further three years touring internationally & recoring 2 albums with Scottish Fusion outfit 'The Peatbog Faeries' (Welcome to Dunvegas 2003, Croftwork 2005).
Moving to Glasgow in 2006 to work on his own musical project, Glasgow's 'Injuns' have enjoyed the mixed blessing of being the black sheep of Scotlands Independent music scene. With major festival appearances at Belladrum, T in the Park, T on the Fringe, Isle of Skye & Loopallu, their electric performances have earned them a five star review from the list, and seen them called upon to support cult acts such as the Mystery Jets and Buck 65.
Injuns recently featured live in session for Apple at their store on Buchanan Street & also toured Scotland with with TuneUp Touring programme & Kopparberg Cider in 2008, culminating in a performance at the Hydro Connect Festival.
Leighton works as a session pianist & singer, & performs every week in venues & bars throughout Glasgow & Edinburgh.
