American and Celtic music

Carole accompanies him on the guitar. The instrumental and vocal selections range from the sweetest of Irish airs to bouncy jigs and reels. Cowboy ballads, Christian/Gospel hymns and original melodies are part of their mix. They spend much of their summer entertaining at local events and around the state. |

Leon Joseph Littlebird |
Is a third generation native of Colorado with roots in both Pioneer and  Native American cultures. A prolific songwriter and performer, his unique styles weave story after story into a musical show audiences come back for again and again.
Native American Flute music has a long tradition of being romantic, stimulating and peaceful. Leon’s melodic flute music is popular in clubs, concerts, wedding and special events. In his performances Leon will often play several instruments including 6-string and 12-string guitars, mandolin, keyboard, harmonica and the Native American flutes.
His warm and powerful vocal talent combined with the musical instruments draws the audience closer to the type of music he plays. He was voted “Best Entertainer” in Summit County Colorado in 2006. |
