Son of comedian Michel Leeb and journalist Beatrice Malicet, Tom Leeb was born in Paris in 1989. He is the youngest of the family.
His song “Are We Too Late” already reached more than 25 million views on YouTube. His debut album from 2019 “Recollection” is entirely in English and has many hits on it. Except for one song on his debut album, all songs are 100% written by himself. It is unknown in what language the entry for France will be this year.
