Leerone is my name. First name only. Pronounced Leeee-rhone or roan. Like the "Lee" of Leroy and the "Rone" of Tyrone.
Leerone is music, of the sine-wave variety ][ or, maybe, peanut butter, honey and banana sandwiches, lightly toasted on a sunday morning ][ fond memories and a little self-administered guilt
Influences
The smell of things. Freckles. Vonnegut. Hymns and spirituals. Motherless Child sung by Mahalia Jackson. Awkward moments made better by a contagious smile. Wish you were here. Summertime. Harold and Maude. Cats with sagging bellies that you can play with (Luna Bella Noche). The first time I heard Blue by Joni Mitchell and had to stop in my tracks. The Dreaming. Do what you gotta do sung by Roberta Flack, Chapter Two. The bird-like chirps of Joan Baez. Listening to Beatles songs with Rebecca on the bus and sharing headphones. Maimonides. Gelato.
