The debut album, Uppers and Downers (released Summer 2006) has had a great reaction from radio and press alike;

âA goddamn catchy little beggar.â - Garry Mulholland (Q Magazine, Observer Music Monthly)
âLeon are a sweet band with a stiletto blade in each hand...good attitude.â â NME âTuneful pop, so memorable, an achievement.â - Daily Mirror Single of the Week âSlick and scuzzy lo-fi pop rocking thats as cool and crisp as its fuzzy.â - Unpeeled Review.

The singles from Uppers and Downers received radio play on XFM (playlist and session), Radio 2 (Jonathan Ross, Janice Long session), BBC6 Music and Kerrang FM.

The recordings for the new EP (due out late summer) are a departure from the electronica tinged sound of the album, capturing more of the full, live band sound while keeping the all important big tunes.
