Award winning artist John Leslie foremost talent is his ability to create unforgettable melodies with good soul lyrics
Award winning Australian John Leslie is a true artist in every sense of the word. His music is timeless, and whilst his releases have crossed a mix of genres such as dream pop, pop rock, gospel and more, there is a consistency to his music which is instantly recognisable as John Leslie.
After witnessing a dramatic fall in listeners in the confusion following an artist name change, John Leslie comes back with a lush and lavish production, ‘The History of Sugar’. Weaving elements of Jazz with Latin beats and layered harmonies creating a stunning soundscape for Leslie’s distinct and passionate vocals to deliver his beautifully worded lyrics of love, loss, forgiveness and moving on, in a track that will sit comfortably alongside the most heart wrenching love ballads of all time.
Collaborating once again with ARIA Hall of fame inductee and long-time associate of iconic band, ‘The Church’, Peter Koppes has brought a sophistication to Leslie’s music which has evolved rapidly since his first release in 2020.
In that time his music has touched thousands via extensive radio play throughout the world and to date his music has accumulated over 300,000 streams on Spotify. His music video ‘Cosmic Echoes’ has won at least a dozen international film festival awards.
Leslie’s uplifting and thought-provoking lyrics are relatable across generations and his vocals are delivered with such passion and emotion that you can’t help but get swept along in the moment. Spending an extended period ignoring the music of Western cultures has given Hulcombe the opportunity to hone his craft and develop a unique and distinctive sound.
Indie Dock Music: “John’s first and foremost talent is his ability to create unforgettable melodies with good soul lyrics and that the song bursts into our consciousness with its beauty and bright background and fills the expanses of the planet, gathering eyes of happy people and that the lyric in the structure of the song sounds like a hymn of love.”
An unmissable artist whose dreamy and uplifting music will be sure to remain in his listeners’ heads and hearts.
