MARC LEON
Marc Leon has been associated with many bands and artists who now form a part of Australian Music History. He has earned the respect of his peers as a musician who is not afraid to take on new challenges and constantly works on refining his skills as a composer and performer.

Marc began his musical career in 1960 as lead singer in local Rock & Roll bands and by 1966, his musical interests shifted towards Jazz, Blues and Soul. He was influenced by musicians such as Ray Charles, BB King , Wes Montgomery and the Soul artists who recorded for the "Stax" label.

Over the years, Marc has shared the stage with many International acts like The Kinks, Mungo Jerry, Bee Gees, Jose Feliciano, Fairport Convention and Roberta Flack. He worked as a studio session musician, as well as guitarist and musical director for several Australian Top Celebrities, including John Farnham, Colleen Hewett, Normie Rowe and John St. Peters.

Marc also taught guitar for many years in music schools and his home studio. Some of Marc's songs have made it into the finals of the American Song Festival (1976) and the MBAS Blues Performer Of The Year contest (1995).

HERE'S A REVIEW OF MY CD, *POWER OF THE BLUES* BY MY GOOD FRIEND WENDY RUDIN FROM SPIRIT FM 91.1 SPIRIT OF THE BLUES:

MARC LEON is very addictive. He rocks with the best of them. If you can listen to his CD and not move to his music, go see a doctor, you need a checkup!! Great music to dance to, move to or just listen to. Marc you are one of our best, no wonder you’ve performed with some of the top musos.

Vocals and instruments don’t fight each other, they come together like a dream. A great selection of songs with nothing repetitive. Don’t miss out on your copy of **The Power Of the Blues** - Get It Now!

Fabulous CD, Marc and all the very best for the future. Don’t ever stop playing and singing as you’re a fantastic example of our wonderful Aussie musicians

I’ll be very proudly playing Marc on my Spirit of the Blues show & I know the listeners will enjoy him as much as I do.

Congratulations Marc, you’re very special.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE TWO BOOKS. YOU WILL FIND THEM MOST ENTERTAINING TO READ AND THEY ARE A GREAT GIFT IDEA FOR YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

If you love cats (like me) then check out my friend Jo Gray's gorgeous book on feline fun and mayhem "Cat Tails & Catastrophe's" - "A purrrfect way to relax..."

Colleen's Book Cover

My friend Colleen's book, THE WONG WAY TO MARRY is available globally in good bookstores and on-line now. An epic tale of forbidden love, music and mayhem, a hilarious and heartwarming story of growing up ethnic and the consequences of defying tradition. Set in the 1970s, it is an era of rock n roll music, clothes to match, long hair and post sexual revolution freedoms.

*THE WONG WAY TO MARRY* is one of the most entertaining books I've read in years. Colleen's casual, honest and descriptive writing style got me involved from the first paragraph. For an old Blues/Rocker like me, reading this book was like re-living those days. For those of you too young to experience that era, her story will make you wish you'd been there.

Check out Colleen's page on www.myspace.com/colleenpoulter for details about getting your copy now
