Tina Leon is a singer-songwriter from Montreal who draws her inspiration from the Motown generation and the soul music of the last decades. Having already sung and collaborated with Stevie Wonder, DJ Champion and Garou under the artist name Marie-Christine Depestre, she now appears in a new light, more authentic and full of life than ever. In reference to the nickname given to her by her family and in homage to her maternal grandmother, this choice of a new stage name is a way for her to fully express her personality, to assert her art and thus to find a form of balance.
Describing it as a rainbow of soul, her debut album Push & Pull which came out on May 16, 2025, is a colourful journey through jazzy, funk, and pop rhythms with rich and enchanting melodies.
The deep feeling that Leon pours into her music, accompanied by the bright, complex variety of sound, makes this album burst open with a colorful array of emotion.
"Tina Leon is a rising star in the R&B and Neo Soul genres whose music has the ability to uplift and inspire. She keeps drawing crowds in and securing her position in the Canadian music scene with her distinctive sound and heartfelt performances. Watch out for this budding star as she makes waves with her moving songs and amazing skill." - Viberate.com
