Leslie Dancey is a powerful singer, songwriter, musician and actress gifted with the ability to connect with audiences through expressive and profound lyrics and melodies. The versatility of her music includes elements of rock, pop, blues, folk and country – yet, all of these labels cannot define the spirit of her music.

Her vocal performances span the spectrum of emotion, from tender and sweet to rootsy and raw.”

Leslie’s experiences working with an ACADEMY AWARD nominated director and her ongoing acting training at the legendary GROUNDLINGS IMPROV THEATRE in Los Angeles, seamlessly combine themselves with her vocal and musical talents allowing her to engage audiences with a very unique and commanding stage presence. Having played shows in Canada, the USA and the United Kingdom, Leslie is no stranger to performing and most recently finds herself garnering rave reviews for her vocals, musical ability and unique performance personality while sharing the stage with an all-star band consisting of Mike Murphy (lead guitar player for GRAMMY AWARD WINNER Freddy Fender, Reba MaEntire, Anne Murray...), Shaun Dancey (9 time SCMA bass player of the year award winner), Guy Perrin (Juno, CCMA and SCMA award showcase performer) and Brad Zimmer (internationally and nationally touring drummer). Living freely in the moment, Leslie continually connects with audiences in a captivating way that invites them to intimately share in her unique journey.
Said by many to have a classic voice, timeless sound, insight beyond her years and a presence that effortlessly draws people in, Leslie radiates with the truth, passion and spirit that she brings to the world. Her creative, wise and heartfelt approach to her craft transports audiences with lyrics and melodies that are rich in color while also reflecting her journey that pays homage to the authentic storytellers and creators that most powerfully influenced her including Sheryl Crow, Bonnie Raitt, Neil Young, Johnny Cash, Joni Mitchell and The Traveling Wilbury’s.
