Jeff is an event entertainment expert and a fine musician. From a musical family, he started classical training at the age of five in the Chicago suburbs. He continued through music school at the University of Louisville, Kentucky and played with the Louisville Orchestra. Having mastered the bassoon, his first love was classical music, yet he found a need to learn to improvise, and in 1975 he started playing contemporary pop, rock, country and jazz on sax and flute. He also sings strong lead pop vocals, and has been a successful band leader for over 20 years. After leading bands in Colorado, in 1986, Jeff and his wife Linda moved to Nevada. Soon after, they established their original business,'The Jeff Leep Orchestras', - several theme bands featuring Jeff as leader/emcee. As the Orchestras gained in popularity, they saw the need to offer other types of entertainment. In 1993, they formed Leep Entertainment Agency-a full service, one-stop-shop for all kinds of entertainment including Mobile DJs, Karaoke and other professional entertainers. The company motto is"We Book the Best & We Have the Variety". Jeff has found Reno to be a wonderful place to do business, and also full of opportunities to revive his classical music career. He is now the principal bassoonist in the Reno Philharmonic, and also performs with other classical groups somewhere between his own bookings with Leep Entertainment. Once in a while you may even catch him playing wild electric bassoon in one of the local jazz clubs.
