Its rare to find an artist who is not only naturally gifted and hard working, but willing to stay true to himself and still manage to make the masses fall in love. This is where Spanish native Leroy Sanchez shines and sets himself apart from other artists. Born and raised in Vitoria, Spain, Leroy realized at a young age that singing is what he loved to do most. When he was sixteen, Leroy uploaded his first video to YouTube. It was sweet and simple, just him and his guitar covering “Breakaway” by Kelly Clarkson. That video was the start of something amazing for Leroy, and he didn’t even realize it. Several more YouTube covers and sold out shows later, Leroy received a message that would drastically change his path—figuratively and geographically. Super producer, Jim Jonsin (who has produced hits for artists such as Beyonce, Usher, Lil Wayne, T.I., Kelly Rowland, among others and is based just outside of Miami), had seen his videos and immediately recognized the incredible potential in him. Jim signed Leroy to a record deal with his label, Rebel Rock Entertainment. As soon as he did, he went straight to work on the 10th season of American Idol doing background vocals and vocal production for various contestants like Scotty McCreary, James Durbin and Haley Reinhart. There, he was able to meet and perform in front of many well-known artists like J.Lo, Marc Antony, and even Prince who said, “He’s a star,” as Leroy strummed the last chord to a song he sang for him. Leroy now has over 250 million views on his YouTube channel, with more than 2.5 million subscribers, 139k followers on twitter and over 715k likes on Facebook. He has a strong fan base that continues to grow each day and who he makes it a point to interact with..
