Lullaby has an old-school ballad feel. Better Days is a sweet love song with an abiding optimism. Waldo's high-range capability and gift for dynamics is on exhibit in All We Need Is Love. - Music Connection Magazine

In his own words, Leon Waldo just wants to watch the world groove.
The budding singer-songwriter looks hand-picked for an episode of the television program “Glee” in his black, button-down with the sleeves stylishly rolled up, a black vest and matching skinny jeans that serve to make the neon blue of his tucked-in tie and hipster glasses pop.
With the attitude, talent and drive inspired by Prince, Beyonce and Alicia Keys, the self-taught pianist, singer and drummer, it’s almost certain that Rachel Berry would detest him on sight.
She would also likely be very jealous of his piano skills.
