Bio
Leon and the Forklifts made their first appearance at a local coffee shop on Main Street in Buffalo, New York on an open mic night. The band was approached by a booking agent for Nietzsche's, Buffalo's Legendary Music Hotspot, on Allen Street.
Blues-based rock and funk, the band began to make a name for itself and so the articles were written, "Always fair dressed in suits,' "lovin the ironing board keyboard stand," "the spinning bass, jumpin from amp to amp..." - The Buffalo News - The Gust...
