Labeled as “prowling, brooding
and mischevious” by Emma Wilson, London UK music promoter, Beware!
The Leopard is pouncing on the public consciousness in Canada.
With the driving riffs and atmospheric effects of Alex Leger’s guitar/keys
and vocals, underpinned by the fiery energy and wide textural palette
of Mark Segger on drums, the Toronto based duo creates an emotional
experience for the audience, covering ground from singer-songwriter
to indie rock to creative ambient soundscapes.
Alex formed the project in
early 2008 as a solo act playing gigs in London, UK, including headlining
spots at the River Cafe, the Phoenix, and the Edinburgh Cellars.
In addition to being “a fantastic and innovative singer-songwriter,”
as praised by Daniel Joe - another London UK music promoter, Alex produces
an array of creative textures through his use of live looping.
Mark Segger joined the project in the summer of 2009 and brings his
experience in jazz and improvisation to the music.
With the release of the debut
EP “Cli-Che” in the fall of 2009, and an extensive tour to follow,
Beware! The Leopard is looking forward to making 2010 an exciting year
of music!
