Leap

Indie rock sad boys LEAP are on the verge, in every sense of the word. Bubbling with anticipation, whether it’s the palpable energy at their explosive sold out shows across the UK and Europe, or landing in Shazam’s top 50 viral playlist, there is a growing sense of impending rumble.

Fronted by one of the most captivating, natural-born front-men in recent years, Jack Scott’s bi-polar disorder only adds to a raucous world in perpetual boiling point.

Born and raised between Edinburgh and Cape Town, as well as studying at music school in Brighton, Jack’s internationally diverse background has now bled into the music he creates with the band – an eclectic mix of rock n roll misfits. On drums, the multi-instrumental bisexual-budhist sensation Hector Cottam. Having grown up together in Scotland, Jack and Hector formed an unbreakable bond from the age of four.

Slapping the bass guitar – Declan “BullsEye” Brown – forged in the fires of Johannesburg and battle hardened in the rock scene of Camden. He had a chance encounter with Jack at iconic music venue The Hawley Arms and they bonded over their fancy for cheap denim attire.

Completing the musical equation was the introduction of a young, fair-haired Jedi in the form of Adam Mason. A deeply talented and classically trained guitarist that’s really helped bring the LEAP sound to life. Adam tasted the limelight dancing on various TV shows as a child and now, at just 22, he has already performed in front of thousands across Europe with various projects.

2021 saw the real formation of LEAP, stepping up and out of the world of DIY releasing into a more ambitious, more refined sonic palette where they can comfortably compete with some of the biggest indie-rock acts around.
