b'RockerMike and Rob interview the incredible Leather Leone!!!!!\\n\\nReal Name:\\nCatherine Leone\\nProfile:\\nLeather Leone is an American metal vocalist best known for fronting the groups Rude Girl[1] and Chastain in the 1980s.[2] She released one solo album, Shock Waves, in 1989, before taking a twenty-year break from the music scene.[3] In 2011 she began performing again in The Sledge/Leather Project, which released a debut heavy metal album, Imagine Me Alive, in 2012.[4] \\n\\nRude Girl \\n\\nLeather Leone started singing in the early 1980s. She joined with drummer Sandy Sledge to start the all-female metal band Rude Girl in San Francisco, California. Leone handled vocals.[1] The group began headlining metal shows in the San Francisco area, and were on stages with groups like Suicidal Tendencies and Megadeth. The band was asked to sign a seven-year record deal with Columbia Records, with producer Sandy Pearlman of Black Sabbath, but the band split before they recorded their first album.[5] Rude Girl would morph into Malibu Barbi. Leather Leone guest sang on a released highly collectible "Rude Girls" 2-song 12" EP in 1987. \\n\\nChastain \\n\\nLeone soon became lead vocalist of the band Chastain. The group was put together in 1984 by Mike Varney, president of Shrapnel Records for a David T. Chastain solo album. Varney had noticed the shred guitar ability of Chastain, member of the Cincinnati-based band CJSS and, at the same time, he wanted to create an output for the talent of young singer Leather Leone, formerly with the San Francisco band Rude Girl.[6] She recorded five albums with him over six years, and the group at different points contained members from Alice Cooper, Cannibal Corpse, and King Diamond.[5] After a long hiatus Leather Leone has begun recording with Chastain again. They released "Surrender To No One" in 2013. An uncut version of "Surrender To No One" was released in 2014. Chastain, with Leather Leone, has not toured since 1990. However, Leather Leone has once again begun to play shows as the voice of Chastain. \\n\\nSolo album \\n\\nShe released her solo album, "Shock Waves", in 1989 on Roadrunner Records. The album was first released in 1989 through David T. Chastain\'s own label Leviathan Records.[3] After a final tour in 1991, she disappeared from the music scene.[1]\\nMore\\nSites:\\nFacebook, YouTube, Wikipedia, sailawaytomorrow.blogspot.com\\nIn Groups:\\nChastain, Leather, Sledge Leather\\nVariations:\\nViewing All | Leather Leone\\nL.
