Bio:
Surrounded by music and dance all of her life, this unique and aspiring female entertainer from Kingston Jamaica has spent many years singing and performing on stages around the world. This sultry and talented artist has recorded with numerous popular reggae acts including Japanese reggae star Nahki, Sly and Robbie and Jimmy Cliff on the sound track of the movie “Lion King.” She has been the foundation of Toots and The Maytals backing vocals for many years, where she graces the stage with her famed father, Toots Hibbert. Leba has had chart topping songs dating back to 1989 when “54-46”, a duo she started with her sister Melanie, recorded “Ooh La La” and some other R&B covers for reggae producers Sly and Robbie on their “Taxi” label. “Ooh La La” topped the British Black Echo charts twice. Leba performed backing vocals on Toots and The Maytals’ 2005 Grammy winning album “True Love,” and played the lead role in the video of her cover of CeCe Peniston’s “Finally,” which was produced by the “Taxi Label". More recently, she collaborated with popular DJ Turbulance on a song and video called “Criminal of Love” for World Boss label, and her debut solo will be released on April 22, 2011. This album that she co-produced, showcases Leba’s extensive talents as a singer/songwriter, and presents a skillful blend of diverse vocals and rhythmic styles laced with sometimes subtle, but exciting reggae grooves and overtones. With all these commitments, Leba credits her son CJ with helping to keep her focused, and for being her constant source of inspiration. Her soulful voice has an unassailable conviction, and she brings a unique sound to the Jamaican music scene that moves and captivates all who listen. This new album is sure to be everything music lovers expect it to be, and much more...
