Leroy Sanchez currently lives in Los Angeles, US. Although he is active on social media, his posts are mainly related to his professional life.

In his effort to give something back to society, he has worked with the organization ‘CoachArt,’ which works for children suffering from chronic illnesses. His music promotes a positive approach to life and motivates the younger generation to face life and overcome hardships.

According to social media, he is currently single.

Leroy Sanchez was born on September 1, 1991, in Abetxuko, Vitoria, Spain. He loved music since childhood and taught himself to play his mother’s guitar while spending time with his friends and family.

In his teenage years, he took piano lessons. At 14, he participated in the Spanish vocal competition ‘Veo Veo.’ Although he did not win a prize in the competition, the experience motivated him to post his self-made videos online. This was his first step to becoming a professional musician.

Leroy Sanchez started his music career at the age of 15, when he uploaded his first cover on ‘YouTube.’ His music was an instant hit and received positive reviews from all over the globe. Encouraged by his success, in January 2007, he launched his own ‘YouTube’ channel. He then worked on a number of covers, including ‘Hello’ by Adele and ‘Stay with Me’ by Sam Smith, both of which became immensely popular.

American record producer and entrepreneur Jim Jonsin heard Sanchez on ‘YouTube’ and recognized his potential. He invited Sanchez to travel to Miami to pursue his music career. Sanchez accepted the offer and relocated to the US to follow his dream, in 2011.

Initially, he struggled to cope with the new surroundings. However, people came to know about him through the internet, and he soon signed contracts with the record labels ‘Rebel Rock’ and ‘Interscope Records.’ He released his debut single, ‘By My Side,’ in 2014. This was closely followed by the track ‘Little Dancer’ that became a big hit.

His music became popular with the younger generation, and Leroy soon became a name to reckon with, in the American music arena. He worked with a number of heavyweights of the music industry and performed in rapper Machine Gun Kelly’s 2015 track ‘Gone.’ He made his mark in the industry and worked with upcoming producers and songwriters such as Rico Love, Danja, Frank Romano, and Jenn Decilveo.

In 2016, he released the single ‘See You’ and was nominated for the ‘Premios Juventud Award,’ meant for exceptional artists of Spanish origin. He was also nominated for a ‘Teen Choice Award’ the same year. This boosted his ratings in the industry. He soon toured with the band ‘Boyce Avenue’ as part of their opening act.

Leroy Sanchez has sung a number of cover songs and has composed his own music, too. His original singles include the hits ‘By My Side’ (2014), ‘Little Dancer’ (2015), and ‘See You’ (2016).

He released his debut EP, ‘Elevated,’ in 2017.

His major tours have been with the band ‘Boyce Avenue’ in 2016, followed by his personal tours to promote his track ‘Man of the Year’ and his EP ‘Elevated’ in 2017.
