2022 marks 50 years of Leo Sayer as a recording artist. With the world gradually emerging from a two-year hiatus, Leo will be celebrating this milestone to great effect, with a live performing schedule throughout 2022, along with a brand new album. Leo, who has had worldwide #1 singles up to 2006, as well as numerous GRAMMY and BASCA awards, is currently racing to the top of the Dance Charts with a new Armand van Helden re-working of his 2006 UK #1 single with Meck. During this period of much-perceived inactivity, Leo has been extremely active, spending a lot of time recording and releasing new singles - ‘My City In Lockdown’ and ‘How Did We Get Here’ - as well as collaborating on the tribute single to his friend and late-guitarist, Al Hodge, by recording Al’s classic track ‘Tradewinds’. However, Leo also found the time to self-produce this new album; his own take on songs written and composed by John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison ‘NORTHERN SONGS’ is born; a 19 track CD and 2LP collection of simply timeless songs, with a limited signed vinyl edition. The release will also be available digitally.
