leonelle leen

Leonelle Leen started out in Eskilstuna in 2004 with the members Erik, Jimmi & Hjalmar and released one demo in this constellation. Shortly after, Max joined the band and took over the bass that Erik had been playing before, making Erik switch to guitar. A half-finished demo in 2005 was recorded and a keyboard player named Hette joined the band. The group had these five members for about a year. Then late 2006 Jimmi had to leave the group to move to Gothenburg. The four remaining members decided to continue with the band and create that soft and beautiful music that Leonelle Leen is known for! Sadly, the quartet has now become a trio. Due to lack of time and motivation, Max has left the band. But don't despair, Leonelle Leen will live on in some alternative form! Hjalmar has packed away his drum-kit, in favour of his computer, on which he creates phat beats and back-tracks. Live he alters between playing the guitar and the bass. This transition has left Leonelle Leen with a major challenge regarding the creative process. But the new electronica inspired trio has probably never sounded better!
