Wayne Leffler
‘Lefty’ was born into a family with music running through their veins. From the southern suburbs of Sydney Australia, his musical influences are wide and varied which is reflected in his vast repertoire from old classics to modern groove based tunes.
He started by playing in school bands then moved to busking in Sydney’s Botanical Gardens as a 16 year old with initial major influences from Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie, Donovan, Don Maclean, Harry Nilsson later moving into blues bands with the initial influence of the British blues invasion of the 60’s.
Currently performing with his band, RUN the RED, as lead vocalist and multi-instrumentalist (playing keyboards, guitar, mandolin and blues harp) and also performing in duo and trio combinations (RedRunners) and also with his son, Joel Leffler.
The latest phase of his musical journey has been a return to performing as a solo artist utilising his versatility with acoustic guitars, electric guitar, harmonicas, looper pedal and various other effects and harmonising pedals.
