HERMANS HERMITS
LEONIE JAKOBI
I would like to introduce you to Leonie
Jakobi a singer/songwriter with a great
future.
This 23-year-old Frankfurt Native, who
is currently based in Liverpool, has been
immersed in the world of music ever since
she was a young girl.
Taking the sound brought to her by her father,
through musicians such as Bruce Springsteen
and The Beatles, made Leonie Jakobi form
her first ever band at just 13 years of age. She's
submerged herself in many different cultures
and environments to create a unique Rock /
Folk Pop sound that combines the power of
three-part harmonies, classic rock anthems
and pounding drums with intimate and
resonating vocals.
Hermans Hermits ‘55th Anniversary Tour’
comes to Wrexham – William Aston Hall
on Sunday 23rd February 2020. An Evening
of Nostalgia, Song and Laughter, plus
bringing all the hits to life.

bands of the 60’s, not just in the UK, but
around the World.
From their early beginnings in 1964, the band
have chalked up 23 hit singles, 10 hit albums,

The mission in her music is to tell stories of
the ages, to connect and hold a place in the
heart of her listeners with a raw sense of
merciless honesty.
Her debut single "Are You Lonely Enough",
due for release in February 2020 is a product
of years of sound and soul searching. Creating
a vibrant yet somehow delicate fusion of rock
/ folk/ pop music, the combination of her
distinctive voice and hypnotic drums have
you hooked from the start.
The identity of the music is parallel with the
identity of the creator – connecting with
every person that hears the songs and meets
Leonie is what gives her music such intimacy.
