Leon of Athens – From the Indie Obsessive Mailbox (Part II)

     So, you are like us because you enjoy band choirs. Then, you’ll enjoy “(To The) Children of Tomorrow” by Leon of Athens. And you are like us because you enjoy a band shout or two, like the Lumineers shouts. Well then, you’ll really enjoy “(To The) Children of Tomorrow.” And if you enjoy horns and strings in your Indie music, you’ll love the song, as we do.
      Leon of Athens is based in Greece (Yes, it seems obvious, but…). According to the email invitation from the band:
      Leon of Athens releases “Global,” the first track from his forthcoming debut UK album, on April 7… This indie pop track brings together elements of electro and acoustic tones, as folk, pop and rock come together to paint your world in musical colours.  With the album set to follow in June this year, Leon's vibe is upbeat and euphoric, with a social awareness running throughout.”
     The members are Leon Veremis (vocals),  Mike Park (drums), Emma Williams (keys), Lefteris Volanis (guitar), and  Iraklis Theocharopoulos (bass).
