Cleo LeighCA
Whether behind the decks or in the studio, Cleo Leigh crafts immersive worlds that channel an emotive and distinctly personal narrative. Her live performances, shaped by hardware improvisation and modular synthesis, transform pure physical energy into intricate kinetic structures suffused with rhythmic depth.
Rooted in the remote yet vibrant scenes of St. John’s, Cleo Leigh first made her mark by co-founding key nightlife institutions like LAVI SEKS, STÄMPT, and the Selenium event series, laying groundwork for a thriving electronic community in Newfoundland. Her sound is informed by years of crate-digging, analog experimentation, and a love for sonic tension, where minimalism meets complexity.
She’s brought this vision to stages across Canada and abroad, including FORMAT (Toronto) alongside Blawan and SHDW & Obscure Shape and Vibrancy Fest in Halifax with Tiga and Lady Starlight.
