Leoni Jane Kennedy

Leoni Jane Kennedy is a ‘PRS Guitars official artist’, multi-award winner and musical polymath creating a new wave of rock with progressive influence, described by The New York Times as ‘a welcomed portal to something passionate and powerful’. In 2018, Queen’s Brian May and Roger Taylor chose her to receive the ‘Freddie Mercury Scholarship’, financing her entire university tuition fees. ‘New World Woman’ was released in 2023 as an acoustic reinterpretations album of tracks by RUSH. This completely sold out and saw her touring globally. This year saw her take the No.2 placement in PROG magazine for the 'Best New Artist' category, just in time for her debut originals album ‘Synthetic’ to be released on June 15th after raising the funds to produce physical merchandise in just 6 days.
