Overview

Hello, I am a full-time professional Singer/Guitarist and have been performing live for the past 16 years. I currently play weekly gigs at Carlino Restaurant in the Shangri-La Hotel and Showcase Restaurant in The Marriott Pinnacle Hotel, both in Vancouver.

I also play weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, etc. My set list contains 300+ songs for all different occasions. Everything from Motown, Classic Rock, 2000's Pop Hits, Current Pop Hits, Indie, Folk & Country. My personal favourites are songs from the 60's-70's.

I have additional musicians I can provide for events (second guitarist, bassist, pianist, cajon player, drummer).

Please message me if you have any questions!

Consistently Awesome

Leela has been performing at our restaurant Carlino every Sunday for nearly one year now and I have been consistently impressed by her talent and professionalism. She has a staggering repertoire, excellent technique and knows her audience. Not only that, but she has never missed a gig without having an alternate lined up. She has been an absolute pleasure to get to know over these few months and her presence has greatly increased the value of our Sunday night offering. 10/10 would recommend.

Highlight Of The Event!

I’m an events manager in Vancouver, and Leela is my go-to musician for almost every event I plan. She’s incredibly talented and knows exactly how to create the perfect atmosphere, no matter the occasion. Guests are always raving about her performances and constantly ask me for her contact info. She’s reliable, easy to work with, and honestly, just amazing at what she does. I wouldn’t think twice about recommending her!
