Leon's album 'Right Now' is out now and available at HMV HERE
X Factor champion Leon Jackson made a triumphant return to the UK music scene this autumn with his eagerly anticipated new single ‘Don’t Call This Love’, released via Syco Music/SonyBMG.
‘Don’t Call This Love’ is an emotive and heartfelt love song, beautifully showcasing Leon’s smooth vocal talent. With lush strings, soaring harmonies and an indelible melody, the track creates a sound that is both soft and mellow, yet still unmistakably ‘Leon’.
Leon says: “’Don’t Call This Love’ is my favourite song on the album. I love the fact it has a really individual sound. It’s about someone who’s been hurt and they don’t want to be deceived anymore, so they’re saying to their partner “don’t you dare call this love”. It’s a really charismatic song”.
Shortly after winning the UK’s biggest talent contest late last year, Leon hit the top of the charts with his debut single ‘When You Believe’ claiming both the Christmas No.1 and the title of fastest selling single of 2007. A headlining slot on the massive X Factor Live Tour followed, with Leon wowing audiences and critics alike.
19 year old Leon spent the six months recording with A grade songwriters and producers such as Steve Robson (Take That, James Morrison) and Peter Gordeno (Seal) to create a collection of superb contemporary songs, drawing influences from the worlds of both pop and jazz.
Leon’s long awaited debut album ‘Right Now’ was released on October 20th and fans of his amazing performances have not been disappointed by his smooth and rich vocal delivery across the tracks.
Leon is rightly proud of the album: “The music is really a mixture of modern jazz with singer-songwriter elements. A lot of it is really soulful. When I was recording I drew on all the musical influences that I like from James Morrisson to Amy Winehouse to Duffy and Michael Buble, but it’s really my own sound”.
