Leon Seti, also known as Leo Baldi, is breaking the mold of traditional music with his signature experimental pop sound. Raised between the UK and Italy, this gifted artist utilizes his multicultural background throughout his original works. This is evident in his recent album, COBALT, which reached #1 on the iTunes Electronic Chart in Italy and was featured on Billboard Italia. Also embedded in the album is Leon’s melting pot of riveting electronic music, translating over to the extraordinary theatrics in his live performances.
On top of the breathtaking compilation, Leon has been supported by BBC introducing and has showcased his project at prime venues across London, as well as festivals in Italy. It is through his eccentric identity as an artist and musical creativity that Leon has built a dedicated audience.
Launching the next phase of his career, Leon has dropped his newest album, Grimoire. This LP encompasses ambient soundscapes, taking listeners to a place that can only be imagined in their wildest reveries. Within Grimoire, tracks like “And I’m Gone”, “Abyss”, and “Downfall”, are full of lush melodies and uplifting vocals. However, the album’s lead single, “Lullaby”, is the song that optimally showcases everything Leon embodies.
Speaking on the dreamy single, Leon says, “I wrote the lyrics about a fight I had with my sister. With my producer, Pancratio, we turned it into a powerful statement about feeling like you’re not being listened to, about feeling powerless… The final line “you’ll never say sorry/and that’s fine/ I guess” captures a hope that sometimes is hard to put into words.” By channeling his artistic vision into “Lullaby” and Grimoire, Leon is on a mission to be a stand-out name in 2023.
