Leon Redbone was an American singer-songwriter and musician specializing in jazz, blues, and Tin Pan Alley classics.
Recognized by his hat, dark sunglasses, and black tie, Redbone was born in Cyprus of Armenian ancestry and first appeared on stage in Toronto, Canada, in the early 1970s.

Redbone died on May 30, 2019, following complications from dementia. At the time of his death he was living in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, in hospice care.

A Legend & a very cool dude.

Mr. Redbone, with an orchestra....playing perfectly. The great thing about him was, in spite of of his popularity, nobody ever knew him.
