Circle Sounds Presents:
// LIO Biggest headline to date //
LIO LIO is an ambient alt-pop format fronted by Leonie Sloots. The Netherlands-born, Sheffield-based songwriter has taken the stage supporting acts such as Estrons, Stevie Parker, Skinny Pelembe, Slow Club, Our Girl and While She Sleeps. In May 2018 LIO launched as a full band, further building their eclectic sound compared to the likes of Florence and the Machine and Daughter. They quickly gathered momentum on the Sheffield music scene and beyond through multiple festival appearances (Liverpool Sound City, Tramlines, Y Not Festival), radio play (Amazing Radio, BBC Introducing Sheffield, Sheffield Live, Jelli Records Music Show) and their O2 Academy Sheffield debut supporting King No-One.
“The recent addition of a full band has lifted the delicate and captivating voice of LIO to an amazing new level and transformed her music into a powerful force to be reckoned with” – BBC Introducing Sheffield

The inspiration ebbed and flowed like the changeable spring weather, but finally after 30 days he emerged with a book of hopeful sketches – the beginnings of something new.
