Tina Leon is a singer-songwriter from Montreal who draws her inspiration from the Motown generation and the soul music of the last decades. Having already sung and collaborated with Stevie Wonder, DJ Champion and Garou under the artist name Marie-Christine Depestre, she now appears in a new light, more authentic and full of life than ever. In reference to the nickname given to her by her family and in homage to her maternal grandmother, this choice of a new stage name is a way for her to fully express her personality, to assert her art and thus to find a form of balance.
Describing herself as a rainbow of soul, her first EP “Push” (August 26, 2022, via Ensoul Records) is a colorful journey through jazzy, funk, and pop rhythms with rich and enchanting melodies.
