Her eclectic range and professional experience has literally included every musical style imaginable.  

Houston-native, Leah Zeger is from a family of professional classical string players. She studied violin seriously with her mother , but always had a deep love for singing, especially in the style of Ella Fitzgerald. At 15, she took a 4 year hiatus from violin due to carpel tunnel, during which she focused heavily on developing her voice as well as delving into literally every style outside of classical music. This deviation from the rigors of classical concerti set the stage for Zeger’s transformation into musical chameleon.

The next year, she resumed violin and won a tenured position in the Austin Symphony. Meanwhile, She got her BA in opera from University of Texas , all while performing at jazz clubs and festivals with her band Leah and the Moonlighters. 

Zeger began her LA music career in 2010 quickly winning a position in the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra and film and tv scoring sessions. In 2014, she became an official Yamaha Artist.  She has appeared and toured as a solo violinist with Miley Cyrus, Willie Nelson, Kristen Chenoweth, Charlie Daniels, Post Modern Jukebox,  Electric Light Orchestra, Annie Lennox, Rhye, Cee Lo Green, Stevie Wonder, and began touring and recording as a solo violinist/vocalist for Hans Zimmer in 2017. 

Zeger is also a songwriter with several solo albums to date. Her album Pour Moi is a perfect demonstration of her virtuosity on the violin, her unique and sophisticated vocal technique, and her multi-cultural approach to music. Her latest album, Plans Change, features a guest appearance by David Grisman and a duo performance between herself and Steve Vai.

She performs regularly with her jazz quartet as well as with her husband-wife duo project Leah and I,  in the greater Los Angeles area where she currently resides.
