The Sweet Sound Of Success
Alumna Leanne Robinson gets to the final six in the girls' category on X Factor
University of Hertfordshire alumna, Leanne Robinson, made her debut into the entertainment industry on this season’s X Factor, where she made it through to being one of the last six in the girls’ category.
Growing up singing in church choirs, Leanne entered the BRIT School before her tenure at university, where she studied BA(Hons) Music and Entertainment Management, graduating in 2011. “I’ve been singing all my life, I always knew I wanted to be a singer, but my time at university gave me direction. It meant that I wouldn’t have to go into the business blindly.”
Leanne saw her time here as vital; she knew that if she wanted to succeed in the music business, she would have to learn about it.
The ‘hidden star’ of X Factor 2012 is now back to performing live concerts. Leanne is also promoting her first EP ‘Exhibit A’, which you can download on her website. She is definitely one to watch in the future!
