LEO is the solo music project of a guy called Jon Holt out of Michigan/Portland, who just the other day sent us a three-track preview of his upcoming album debut SPLIT, and I gotta there is something about it that has sparked my attention.
Holt notes that his music would likely be enjoyed by fans of J Dilla, the Beatles, Tame Impala and Frank Ocean, and while that list of artist comparisons may have raised an eyebrow, go ahead an hit play and judge it for yourself – I’d even throw in a bit of Grizzly Bear to that mix
