La cantante de jazz estadounidense Barbara Lea nació como Barbara LeCocq el 10 de abril de 1929 en Detroit, Michigan. Su nombre artístico surgió después de que su padre, un antiguo músico convertido en funcionario del gobierno, cambiara el apellido de la familia a Leacock. Desde muy pequeña supo que quería ser cantante y participó en numerosos concursos de talentos. Tras formarse en el Wellesley College, conoció a la cantante Lee Wiley, que se convirtió en su modelo a seguir. La carrera discográfica de Lea comenzó en 1955 con A Woman in Love, una colección de estándares que incluía versiones de "Love Is Here to Stay" y "Come Rain or Come Shine". en 1956, Barbara Lea expresó más su personalidad. Grabó dos álbumes más en los años cincuenta, pero al no encontrar el éxito popular se retiró de la canción y se convirtió en actriz durante los años sesenta. Regresó a la canción en los setenta, apareciendo en el programa American Popular Song, lo que la llevó a renovar su carrera discográfica. En 1977 publicó The Devil Is Afraid of Music , 20 años después de su último LP. No dejó de grabar y actuar hasta la década de 2000, apareciendo a menudo en los festivales de jazz más célebres. Se convirtió en una apreciada intérprete del cancionero estadounidense, con fieles versiones de obras de Hoagy Carmichael, Rodgers and Hart y Cole Porter, entre otros. En 2007 publicó su último álbum, Do You Know What It Means to Miss New Orleans, y falleció de Alzheimer el 26 de diciembre de 2011.
