Leigh DeMarche Vance
Vocalist
Bio
Leigh Demarche Vance’s dynamic voice has taken her across the country, singing jazz standards to R&B and pop. A naturally gifted vocalist, Leigh sang her first professional gig at age 6 and hasn’t looked back. She has worked professional theater, sung 1940s big band standards in Las Vegas with her two talented siblings (The Demarche Sisters) and brought the funk to Motown classics. She has also sung on numerous commercials. Her credits include gigs with Bob Hope, Donald O'Connor and The Tex Beneke Orchestra.
But her heart belongs to jazz, interpreting Great American Songbook classics with a sultry style and wide vocal range. Leigh’s voice has graced the stages of the Ahmanson Theater, Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza, The Sands Hotel and the Gallo Center for the Performing Arts.
Her current guilty pleasure is singing with the L.A. based Steely Dan cover band, Dr. Wu. Leigh primarily works in the L.A. Area, doing concert, club, and recording dates. She is currently working on a new CD, and her last CD SO IN LOVE is available for purchase.
