James Leeds is a composer, pianist and a record producer from Lucerne. Grew up in Zofingen, Switzerland and has English roots. He studied statistics in Leeds, UK, and worked for a long time in that sector. It took time until the latest album Whenever was ready to be released. Actually, the first contribution dated back to when he was only 15. Then he composed the song Enjoying My Day but it only got finished 25 years later when his mum completed the lyrics. Whenever contains mainly pop songs and he was lucky to feature some amazing singers from the UK and great musicians worldwide although he is an unknown producer. His aim has always been to create a timeless album that will still be listened to, or so I hope, in a few years’ time. For that reason he set the rule that most instruments should be recorded live. Hopefully the effort was worthwhile and you enjoy listening to the music.
