Leona Naess

Leona Naess is a singer/songwriter who was born in New York City on July 31, 1974. Leona was raised in London, England where she was educated at Institut Le Rosey as a child before moving back to New York at the age of 18 to study music and anthropology at New York University. Six years later she signed to the record label MCA and has since released "Comatised" (2000), "I Tried To Rock You But You Only Roll" (2001), and on Geffen Records "Leona Naess" (2003).
Leona released her fourth album, "Thirteens", in 2009. The much-delayed album is named after thirteen lo-fi home-recorded albums.
Naess lives in New York City and frequently travels back to London. She was engaged to singer-songwriter Ryan Adams, but the engagement ended in 2003. Naess wrote on her MySpace blog in January 2010 that she is pregnant, taking a break from music, and has "never been happier".
