Spanish soul meets soul & jazz - music that gets under your skin.

Rosario León (vocals) - Born in Seville and now living in Cologne, she brings Spanish fire and an international variety of styles to the stage.

Influenced by Spanish sounds as a child through her Sevillian father Cipriano León and her German mother's love of soul music and black music, her musical career began early: first performances in the Cologne children's choir, guitar lessons at the age of eleven, later frontwoman of a celebrated 1980s rock'n soul band in the Cologne club scene. She toured throughout Europe - with Spanish musician Tony Baez and Milly Vanilli drummer Micky Byron, among others - and worked in renowned recording studios where Diana Ross and Donna Summer were present.

In the course of her career, she has met greats such as Beyoncé Knowles, Nina Hagen, Frank Elstner, Jeanette Biedermann and Karl-Heinz Kögel.

Since 2008, she has devoted herself to Spanish singing and combines smooth jazz, flamenco pop, soul, blues, Latin and soft rock to create her very own style. With her formation "Rosario León & Band" and founder of the event music project LEÓNENTERTAINMENT, she and her band delight discerning audiences with a chilled-out sound.
