BiographyTodd Michael "Leon" Bridges (born July 13, 1989) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, and actor. Debuting as a throwback act with 2015's Coming Home, an album reviving 1960s soul music, he has since branched out to other genres reflecting his musical influences like R&B artist Ginuwine and country artist Townes Van Zandt. His second and third albums, Good Thing (2018), wherein Bridges drew from 1980s quiet storm and 1990s neo soul, and Gold-Diggers Sound (2021), with which Bridges did his own take on 1990s and 2000s R&B, earned Grammy nominations for Best R&B Album; the former peaked at number three on the chart while the latter peaked at number 17 and yielded critical acclaim. His 2018 single, "Bet Ain't Worth The Hand", won the Best Traditional R&B Performance at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards. Bridges' fourth album, Leon (2024), was a personal album with folk and country influences.

Bridges has also acted in films, portraying revolutionary poet Gil Scott-Heron in the 2018 Neil Armstrong biopic First Man and starring as River in the 2023 drama film The Young Wife.
