LESLIE VINCENT is a prolific songwriter and jazz vocalist. Equally at home singing the Great American Songbook, musical theater, and contemporary rock and pop, she has become one of the most notable voices to emerge in the vibrant Minneapolis music scene, being hailed for her joy-filled performances and her “fun, human, beautiful interpretations” (Levi Weinhagen).Born into a military family, Vincent spent childhood moving along the East Coast and United Kingdom, where she spent her spare time singing along to Frank Sinatra and the Les Mis soundtrack. The one constant was music.
Today, Vincent has become an accomplished bandleader, playing 50+ shows a year, using her theatrical chops to bring drama, comedy and poise to the stage.
In 2023, she released her second album "About Last Night," mixing jazz standards, vintage blues, and her own fresh originals. This release has garnered much critical attention from fans and music critics locally and nationwide, including a write-up in DownBeat Magazine. Her next album, featuring jazz and blues originals is set to come out in 2025.
