Leroy Sanchez

Spanish-born, Los Angeles-based vocalist Leroy Sanchez is a passionate singer/songwriter with a bent toward emotive, acoustic-based pop and dance-oriented R&B. Born in Abetxuco, Spain in 1991, Sanchez became interested in music at a young age and learned both piano and guitar. At age 14, he competed on the reality TV vocal competition Veo Veo. Although he did not win, the experience inspired him and he eventually began posting videos of his cover songs and originals online. After developing a loyal following, Sanchez decided to relocate to the United States to pursue his solo career. He ultimately caught the ear of producer Jim Jonsin (Beyoncé, Lil Wayne, Usher), who signed him to his Rebel Rock label. In 2014, he released his debut single, “Little Dancer.” Several more singles followed, including “By My Side” in 2015 and “See You” in 2016. Also in 2016, Sanchez toured as an opening act for the band Boyce Avenue. ~ Matt Collar
