Leah McFall (born 1 July 1989) is a Northern Irish singer-songwriter and fashion student, born and raised in Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland. She was a runner-up on the second series of The Voice UK. She considers Stevie Wonder, Etta James, Rickie Lee Jones, Jill Scott, Rosie Thomas and John Martyn as her musical influences.
Leah began her singing career at her local church at the age of six. She was a pupil at Antrim Grammar School. She now currently resides in London. During her childhood she listened to Motown, jazz, gospel, folk and pop music which was played around the family home. Leah was influenced by all she heard, and this is reflected in both her vocal and song writing style.[She has a five octave vocal range. After years of gigging around Northern Ireland, Leah uprooted to London to follow her dream.After just six months there, she was playing at the world famous Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club.
Music career
2013: The Voice UK and first chart success
In her blind audition McFall sang the Rita Ora hit "R.I.P". Coaches will.i.am and Jessie J turned round in a bid to add Leah to their teams. Jessie was the first to turn around, while Will waited until the very last moment to press his button.She chose to join Will's team. In the battle round Leah sang against fellow Team Will artist CJ Edwards. The pair duetted on the Michael Jackson classic "The Way You Make Me Feel". Will chose to take Leah through to the Knockout rounds. In the Knockout round will.i.am gave his Fast Pass to McFall and she performed Minnie Riperton's Lovin' You.In her first live show on 7 June 2013 Leah sang 'I Will Survive' by Gloria Gaynor. Her performance wowed the judges and her studio version charted at number 16 on the UK Singles Chart with just 24 hours of sales, selling 19,213 copies of the track between Friday evening and the close of the chart week on Saturday night. A week later it climbs to number 8. McFall performed the Fugees' version of Killing Me Softly in the semi-final on 15 June 2013. The result was revealed later on during the broadcast that McFall had received the most public votes and would therefore represent Team Will in the final and compete to win the recording contract prize.[
