Voted ROCK ALTERNATIVE ARTIST OF THE YEAR by the L.A. Music Awards, this hard-hitting group is well on their way to the bigger & better...
Formed in the Spring of 2005, Leda Atomica was a powerful force from the start.
Changes in the line-up over the years tested their resistance and stymied their progress from
time to time, but they prevailed and now have the most expeirienced and talented musicians ever!
Fronted by midwest transplant, Angie Ueber, Leda Atomica's sound rocks the stage and reaches vocal dynamics few can compare to. Using her stage experience from previous band endeavors, Angie is not afraid to take control and drive this band to the top. Hints of her influences - 90's chick rock like Veruca Salt, Concrete Blonde, and Elastica - swarm the guitar driven tracks of their music.
Bassist, Marika Tjelios hails from Montreal but now calls Los Angeles home. This classically trained pianist and Berklee Graduate, has composed music for ringtones, commercials, industrial videos and Documentary Feature Films. Marika's past credits also include touring and recording with Men Without Hats, Melissa Ferrick, Jariya, Sue Medley, and Gogh Van Go. Her fluid bass lines evoke a hypnotic, yet solid drive to Leda Atomica's music.
New drummer Stephen Riddle is making his mark on the skins in West Coast after dominating the Southeast. Playing everything from Mozart to Metal this versatile session and touring stud is bringing variety and depth to the band. Rocking with Argyle, Fat Drunk and Ugly, and now Leda Atomica, good things are sure to come.
Rounding out the 4-some is Janel Jones. Born and bred on Brit pop, this self taught guitarist is sure to be recognized...not just because she is a chick on guitar. Deadly tones and crunching rhythms pour out of her amp and into the melodic web that completes Leda Atomica.
Leda Atomica's music is setting a standard everywhere they play...people continue to stop and take notice...
