Not everything is black and white.
Things are not always as they seem.
Everyone has a story to tell.
The story of Leiya can be heard through her music.
Just listen.
Highly influenced through life experiences, Leiya infuses her music with the highs and lows that have been a part of her path. Passionate about the emotional journey music takes the human soul on, techno and tech house have been the most awakening style of music for her, with strong influences from Anja Schneider, ANNA and Nina Kraviz. From intimate nightclubs settings to large festival crowds, Leiya’s ability to read her audiences have earned her club residencies, festival gigs and openings for many international DJs.
Leiya’s roster of shows played is impressive, including Los Angeles’ Red Bull Private Party, Habitat Living Sound, Cancun’s Mandala Beach Club and the Future Forest Music & Arts Festival. As crowds dance and sway to her sets, Leiya is able to awaken memories within her listeners, taking them to a place of blissful escape, safe in the confines of her control. Prepare to get lost in the music.
Strangers turn to family.
Cast your worries aside.
Let go.
Leiya.

Born in Liverpool England and raised in Canada, LeeJames has been a fixture in and around the Toronto club and rave scene since the mid 90’s.
LeeJames has played everything small after parties and private events to massive crowds of thousands at events like Utopia and some of the famous Destiny parties when he played under the guise of “Klark Kent”. More recently playing clubs as Li’Ly and The Velvet Underground. He has also thrown and hosted amazing parties. Siren Fridays in Oshawa and the Catch22 after parties in Toronto.
Through his career he and his fans have enjoyed many genres together, but he always seems to find himself mired in the depths of deep dark techno.
