Leon Jacques taps into his R&B and Reggae influences with his latest single Parts allowing the North Londoner to invite his audience to the dance floor, welcoming them with his suave vocals soaked into the warm rhythms of his Caribbean roots, brought to life by Sunset Drver. 

An original member of House Gospel Choir, Leon Jacques helped shape their signature sound and performed at some of the biggest UK festivals including Glastonbury, Latitude and Southport before focusing on his solo career. Previously heard on records from Kojey Radical, Che Lingo and Naughty Boy, his own material received support from major media outlets like BBC 1Xtra and Notion, all championing the “choir in a box” and his honeyed harmonies.

Hailing from the West Indies originally, the artist aims to celebrate his multicultural background with a track that intuitively brings people together. The track immediately gives you Carnival vibes and with summer edging closer it would be no surprise if this is song is getting played at all of the family BBQs. The layered off percussion beat and a light drum provide the space for Leon to express himself through his melodic and sensuous lyrism. 

Speaking on the release, Leon explained:

Leon Jacques will continue to shine his light all throughout 2022, with a wave of monthly singles.
