Musician, producer, arranger, composer, recording artist, and podcast host Leo Sidran started writing songs professionally as a teenager when the Steve Miller Band recorded his songs. Around the same time, he began performing regularly as a drummer with his father, renowned and multifaceted jazzman Ben Sidran

In college, Leo spent a year living in Spain and fell in love with Spanish music and the Spanish language. After college he traveled back and forth between the States and Spain. During that period, he met and befriended Jorge Drexler and years later, would co-produce the Oscar Winning song, "Al otro lado del río" from the film The Motorcycle Diaries with Drexler.

Sidran’s early solo albums found him working with session players in the States and in Spain. His 2014 release Mucho Leo was a completely solitary project featuring Leo on all instruments and voices. The album won fans in France where the song “Speak To Me in Spanish” went to the top of the French radio charts. The following year, a live recording made in France, captured the sound of Leo’s live sound with his newly formed Groovy French Band™. In 2018 he released Cool School [The Music of Michael Franks] followed in 2021 by The Art Of Conversation, and What's Trending in 2023.
