Brooklyn-based LGBTQ pop and alt-rock act LEONE takes us on a search for our dream partner on “I Wanna Be,” a candid production taken from upcoming sophomore EP GTFOH.
An emotive number that captures the feeling of seeking someone who will let you fully into their lives, the track is a brilliant representation of the expansive EP which spans everything from angst and loss to lust and sexuality.
Accompanied by a music video that manages to compliment yet contradict the hopeful core of the track, we’re offered an intimate glimpse of frontman Richie Leone’s experience with love and partners, exploring the hurt and betrayal that comes from giving your all to someone without getting the same in return.
Having formed in 2021 and carving a space in the alt-rock scene with a distinct musicality that’s emotionally charged and powerful, LEONE delivers this EP as a reminder to stand up for what you believe in and fight for your life.
