Concertagenda Leon Bridges

About Leon Bridges
Leon Bridges is resurrecting the golden era of soul, with a contemporary twist. His début album 'Coming Home’ was a resounding success, resembling a lost classic from the 1960s and drawing on influences from Sam Cooke and Otis Redding. With his warm voice and charismatic stage presence, he channels nostalgia without getting stuck in the past. With funk, R&B and pop, he adds a refreshing, contemporary touch to his music, something that also shines through in his collaborations with artists such as Jon Batiste, Kacey Musgraves and Anderson .Paak. Whether we’re talking intimate ballads or dance grooves, Bridges knows precisely how to create a unique atmosphere which appeals to generations of fans. A live concert by Bridges is a warm, soulful celebration which unites the past with today.
After taking 'The Leon Tour’ through Australia and the US, Bridges will continue on to Europe for a few exclusive concerts, including a stop in Ghent! The American gospel and soul sensation will perform his album 'Leon’ and it promises to be a magical concert full of new tracks, golden hits such as 'Coming Home’, 'River’, and his characteristic mellifluous voice.
