Leopardo started as a solo project in 2016. recording psychedelic lo-fi love songs by himself. all for the same girl. the solo album went out in november 2018 on we don’t make it records and montagne sacrée records.

To play the project live, leopardo became a band in 2018, with active members of the underground rock’n’roll scene of Switzerland (FREI & Tour Vagabonde in Fribourg, Drunken Sailors and Spazio Morel in Lugano). they already toured a lot in Switzerland supporting bands as Thee Oh Sees, Tess Parks or Acid Baby Jesus, and played different shows in France, Belgium, Italy and Germany.

the new band album « Is It An Easy Life ? » is ready to be released in september 2019. recorded live and mixed with members of the pussywarmers and the band in Lugano, the songs have been mixed in a spontaneous way, directly on tape.

based on solo compositions, the 9 songs are talking about the fears and the passion of love, depression, oppressive working life, hangover generation and eventually ends up with an absurd chinese army fantaisie.

obviously influenced by classics such as Syd Barrett, the Velvet Underground, the Stooges, or the Country Teasers, leopardo mixs the sweetness of psych love songs with the rawness of a lo-fi punk sound and one or two chords primitive jams, expressing love, happiness, fear and melancholy.
