OUR STORY

Leslie Jenny was born in 1979 in the south of France.
Of Réunionese origin (Indian Ocean), she began music and singing from childhood thanks to her stepfather, who recognized her strong artistic nature.

At the age of 15, she suddenly lost this guiding figure—a shock that deeply marked her family and transformed her forever.
From then on, she decided to channel her pain into creation: writing, composing, and drawing became her refuge.

In 1997, after finishing high school, Leslie moved to Bristol to study English and began shaping her first songs.
The years were not easy: precarious jobs, loneliness, doubts…
But each obstacle brought her, unknowingly, closer to the encounters that would define her artistic destiny.

Since then, Leslie and William have composed more than one hundred songs and shared stages in France and England.
Leslie Jenny writes lyrics, sings, and plays bass.
William Joseph composes, arranges, and plays guitar.
In 2019 they toured the United Kingdom alongside leading musicians from the London reggae scene.

Back in Toulouse, RIDDIM SHOT is now preparing and recording their first album.
Its lead single, IN YOUR EYES (2025), captures the very essence of the band: a unique fusion of reggae and soul that invites both contemplation and an inner journey.

"When times are rough, let's keep the energy positive and sweet thanks to the spirits of ancient times."

In 2004 she settled in Toulouse, a city vibrant with musical energy.
There she joined the local scene as a vocalist and, thanks to bass player Lucien Annoncia, discovered an unexpected passion: Bass.
With discipline and enthusiasm, she mastered the instrument in just a few months.

In 2015, while performing with a band, she met William Joseph-Angélique, an Antillean guitarist with a radiant style.
The connection was immediate: together they decided to create their own universe.
This was the birth of Riddim Shot.
