About Leo
Leo’s background is steeped in more traditional soul and R&B where he has established a career and steadily sharpened his craft playing clubs in Los Angeles, New York and London. He is currently performing with his trio, Leo Napier & The Fever, as well as writing songs for a new solo Leo Napier EP to be released later this year.
Early in his singing career, Leo was invited to compete on The Voice Season II, where his performance of Waiting On The World To Change (John Mayer) landed him a spot on Adam Levine's team. Unfortunately, he was knocked out in the 'battle round' after a strong performance of Easy Like Sunday Morning (Lionel Richie).
The young composer has performed on some big stages, the largest being Coachella, 2015 with Raekwon (Wu-Tang) and Gramatik. He writes music for several successul electro-funk/soul DJ's, including GRiZ, Gramatik, The Funk Hunters, Inzo and more.
Leo is currently at work recording his first independently produced record after opting to leave his former record label, Instant Records which was based in NYC.
"I'm looking to work with young people who are passionate and hungry to learn about this craft. Music has always been my best friend and I take it quite seriously..but never so seriously that I can't laugh at myself every once in a while. We all have an artist in us, somewhere, waiting to get out. I enjoy finding the artistry in others and coaxing it out of them. I want to work with people that genuinely love music, are ready to break out of their comfort zone and let loose."

To who it may concern,
I’ve known Orlando for almost a decade now, having played music alongside him for the duration of that time. Although we have performed in countless engagements together, Orlando has a way of making each and every performance equally special and inspiring.
Orlando Possesses the unique ability to transform anyone around him into a confident musician and singer, including audience members. It’s amazing how many Orlando fans I’ve seen transform from a rather shy spectator to a full on soul singing dance machine. His energy and talent is so powerful that it even inspired me to purchase and take on the piano as a serious instrument.
As a full time touring / studio musician, I have worked with numerous top tier musicians and artists. I have always put Orlando at the very top of that list and consider him to be in a league of his own. He is one of the greats. I find that it is very important for artists of Orlando’s caliber to help shape young musicians, in particular.
Having taught music for 12 years now, and after working extensively with Orlando, I am very confident in his ability to teach and inspire musicians in the same way that he has done for me and so many others.
Sincerely,
Adam StehrLeo is a highly skilled pianist himself and an excellent teacher. He is very patient and makes each session fun as well as extremely productive.
Leo Is One of the best musicians I,ve come across and I,ve seen plenty over the years. He has a Knack for bringing out the best in people and he's passionate about this craft. I hope I can get him to teach my kids one day!
