Leon Redbone

Redbone, who has a distinctive deep voice, began his career in the 1970s.His work encompasses pre-war jazz, ragtime, & blues styles with modern arrangements that still retain a vintage feel.While living in Canada in the early 1970s, Redbone began performing in public at Toronto area nightclubs and folk music festivals. At one point, it was rumored that he was actually comedian Andy Kaufman, who sometimes took on other identities, or singer/guitarist Frank Zappa, who somewhat resembled Redbone.
