Eric Leadbetter Band
Leadbetter Band was born in 2017, featuring Eric’s original songs. Their music style is vast and diverse. With inspiration from vintage rock sounds sprinkled with tasteful jam sections, to a unique contemporary eclectic melting pot of songwriting styles.
The rhythm section is groovy, featuring Aaron Moore on bass and vocals, and Kaleb Kelleher on the drums and back up vocals.
They focus performances mainly on original music, but the occasional cover song choices are tasteful and all over the sacred map of rock history.
The first self-titled album "Leadbetter Band" was released in 2019. Off the album are hard rock favorites like “Grand Misconception” and bluesy “Challenge Me”. The second full length album, “Howl” was released in 2021. Both of those albums had Patrick Pearsall on bass and Dylan Bernal on drums. “Cake” was released in March of 2023 and is the bands 3rd studio album.

The 4th studio album “Spell” was released in December 2025 and was recorded at the beautiful Bluejay Productions studio with co-producer and musical mentor Mark Thomas Johnson.
