The Legendary Leon Ware visits Cashmere Agency

The team at Cashmere Agency had the chance to sit and enjoy a very interesting conversation with non other than the iconic Leon Ware. For all of those who don’t know, Leon Ware a singer, songwriter and producer, is the man behind the music for many of the amazing hits in music since the 70′s. He has created such classics as “I Wanna Be Where You Are” (the young Michael Jackson), “Body Heat” (the great Quincy Jones), “If I Ever Lose This Heaven” (AWB, Quincy Jones), and the undeniably sensual soul classic album “I Want You” by Marvin Gaye.

His influences and collaborations continue to be heard with contemporary artists such as Maxwell (“Sumthin’ Sumthin”), John Legend ( “So High”), and for all of those Hip Hop heads…. Tupac, Ice Cube, A Tribe Called Quest among may others.

There is no way to do this man justice with words… his presence is embracing, and when he speaks, his spirit is felt through the picture painted by his words. He spoke of his experiences with fans, traveling and of course adapting to the changing music culture. Coming from a time when people introduced themselves in person, he is still adjusting to the digital age, but he is doing it with logic. Leon recognizes the importance of the internet…”The internet is such a powerful tool, ideas can be shared, and if embraced correctly, the world can be changed.” Recently signed to Stax Records, Leon is in the studio gearing up for the upcoming release of his new album… so keep an eye out for it!
