Saturday, November 12th at the posh Sony Hall in Manhattan,
NYC’s hottest award-winning Reggae Soul band, Leon & The Peoples, led by multi-talented performer, singer-songwriter, actor & producer simply known as Leon

Leon quote:
I am humbled and honored to give of my time and talent “For The Children.”
Helping our youth in every way is close to my heart and a mission of my band.
When we can play our music and support the Issa Trust Foundation’s mission,
it’s a Win, Win! Joining our friends, Third World on this event makes it even more special for us.
