Leonard's European Press Tour
June 27 - July 13, 2001


                







Between June 27 and July 13, Leonard visited several European countries in a promotional press tour for the new album. He was accompanied by Sharon Robinson and Leanne Ungar. During this tour, Leonard gave over 100 interviews to the print, radio and television media. Below is a list of the media outlets Leonard met with. Most of the articles and broadcasts associated with these interviews will be released in the Fall.
