Leslie Feist (born Friday, February 13, 1976 in Amherst, Nova Scotia) is a Canadian singer-songwriter. She performs as a solo artist under the name Feist, and as a member of Broken Social Scene.
Feist got her start in music as the lead vocalist for a punk band called Placebo (not the more famous British band Placebo), who won a local Battle of the Bands competition and were awarded the opening slot at a Ramones concert. After five years of touring, Feist was forced to take time off from music to recover from voice damage. She moved from her home town of Calgary, Alberta, to Toronto in 1998 and took up guitar; by 1999, she was the guitarist for By Divine Right. She also released her debut solo album, Monarch (Lay Your Jewelled Head Down), that year.
