Leather Heart is a young and well established band of Hard Rock/Heavy from Madrid, Spain, which was born in 2009 and keeps attracting a great attention from the national and international media with their powerful live show and amazing performance of a classic and organic sound which although fresh, seems to be recovered from an old vinyl.
Their first LP, "Comeback", was released worldwide in September of 2015 by The Fish Factory (SPA) and Stormspell Records (USA) and released in vinyl format by TFF in Spain and Diabolic Might Records (GER) in Europe. Nowadays the album has sold more than 2500 copies around the world and it has been considered one of the best metal albums in Spain of 2015 by the Spanish and South American media, as well as Leather Heart as the most promising national band of Hard'n'Heavy. Lately the album was re-edited as a Japanese version by Spiritual Beast in Tokyo.
They are in their early twenties and no one would say so; they have reached a classic 70's 80's sound plenty of details and elegance without losing freshness and originality in their compositions. All of this is reflected in "Comeback", self-produced and recorded old-style in a top pro studio. However even before the release of the album, Leather Heart was invited to play in prestigious European festivals such as Headbangers Open Air (Hamburg, Germany), or the Pounding Metal Fest (Madrid, Spain) or the Swordbrothers Fest (Lünen, Germany) later in 2016. Also, they had the opportunity to open for and share stage with famous foreign bands in their Spanish tours like Riot (USA), Skull Fist and Striker (Canada) RAM (Sweden) or Axxis (Germany).
After the success of their debut European tour of two weeks, passing by France, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands and Austria, including amazing festivals like the Metalheadz Open Air (Germany), the band has lots of incoming shows and tours all over Spain and Europe until the end of 2017 when Leather Heart will release their second album.
