Leyder Chapman Bio
The events leading up to Leyder’s career as a band leader and producer are as interesting as unforeseen. Born in Holguín, Eastern Cuba, his life was dedicated to basketball and other sports since a very young age. It was during a trip to play in the Good Will Games in Australia that his life took an unexpected turn: he decided to stay in Los Angeles with the intent of becoming a professional basketball player.
Due to circumstances that he faced in the US, he found himself part of the Cuban art expression. He became a salsa aerobics instructor and a founder of a dance group called Estrellas Cubanas.
In time, he founded SAOCO, a band specializing in the fusion of Cuban rhythms into the popular reggaeton.
Leyder is the band’s director, producer, choreographer and lead singer.
