From Málaga, Spain, Jesús León formed The León Project with his brother Paco León. Through this musical venture both artists developed a distinctive body of work defined by elegant songwriting, refined production, a cinematic atmosphere and an international outlook.

Throughout his career, Jesús León has combined performance, composition and production across original albums, artist collaborations, and audiovisual projects. His work with The León Project has been associated with releases such as Málaga My Love, Canvas of Miracles, Temple of Love, Different Worlds and later titles linked to Proyecto Duende (Identidad 4.0.). Their music has also been distributed internationally through projects connected to SUGO Music Group in the United States and through releases associated with the Café del Mar label.

As a songwriter and producer, Jesús León has collaborated with artists such as Francisco, Rami Kleinstein and Edith Márquez, among others. Highlights include “Antes de Marchar 4.0 Duet” with Rami Kleinstein and “Devuélveme,” recorded by Edith Márquez for Memorias del Corazón and later revisited as a duet version within the Proyecto Duende repertoire.

His music has also reached film and television. Notably, the song “Undercover Spies,” co-written and performed with Martin McCafferty, appeared in the final episode of the Telecinco series R.I.S. Científica, starring José Coronado. The León Project also contributed music to the film Oh, Marbella!

With a career built on musical versatility, emotional depth and artistic consistency, Jesús León has established himself as a creator able to move naturally between pop songwriting, instrumental expression, international collaboration, and cinematic composition.

Claudio Adrián Lombardi: Versatility and Mastery on the Strings
Born in Buenos Aires (1975) into a family of Italian roots, Claudio Lombardi is the definition of a multi-faceted musician. His love affair with music began at age five at the piano, but it was the guitar that ultimately defined his artistic DNA. What started as precocious talent—teaching professionally by age 16—transformed into a solid career marked by technical rigor and inexhaustible curiosity.

Trained as an arranger and composer of contemporary music in Buenos Aires and specialized at the School of Jazz, his style is a melting pot of influences. In 2000, he moved his talent to Spain; after a key period in the Barcelona scene, he settled in Málaga, where he became a pillar of live music, leading orchestras and collaborating with jazz benchmarks like the Marbella Big Band.
 

On Stage and in the Studio
Claudio’s career stands out for its astonishing adaptability across genres. He has shared the stage and worked with renowned figures such as Pablo López, Javier Ojeda (Danza Invisible), Chambao, and Perico Sambeat. His versatility has led him to accompany the flamenco soul of Tamara de Jerez, the legacy of Manzanita, and the high-energy groove of the Stereo Stars Band. Furthermore, he is a staple of the iconic jam sessions at the Clarence Jazz Club, where his improvisational skills have become a personal trademark.

Claudio has evolved alongside the industry, taking his pedagogical expertise into the digital ecosystem. As an educator, he not only shines in his face-to-face work at Triarte – Center for Artistic Studies and his time at CAAM but has also built a powerful global community through his project 6cuerdasonline. Under this brand, Claudio offers personalized online classes that break geographical barriers, supported by the success of his YouTube channel, which now boasts over 35,000 subscribers. There, he shares his knowledge of harmony, technique, and orchestration, becoming a leading Spanish-speaking educational reference on the web.
