Peggy Lebo
Whether you want to sing or play piano professionally, find your unique voice as a singer-songwriter or just play and sing for yourself, I would love to support you in having fun singing and/or playing music that inspires you while learning skills to help you express yourself with greater freedom.
I spent my early career in Los Angeles working as a studio session vocalist and writing songs for other artists including “Celebrate,” Elle Mac’s hit that reached #3 on the Billboard charts and aired frequently on MTV Road Rules and the song “Now I See” which was the title track and single released by Quincy Jones’ artist, gospel and R&B legend Tata Vega.
During my time in Los Angeles one of my favorite jobs was getting to help up and coming artists find their unique voice as a singer and songwriter. I had the opportunity to work on some great projects including artists being developed by RCA Records, CBS Records, Randy Jackson (American Idol), and independent labels.
