About the Musician
Joe Leaman is an in-demand percussionist, pianist, composer, arranger and educator with an active following throughout Northeastern Ohio. He has appeared as a headliner or accompanied singers and other instrumentalists in past ORMACO performances. He is also the administrator and main instructor of ORMACO’s MCPAL program, an after-school enrichment program created in partnership with the Medina County Police Activities League, providing free music lessons to students in area schools. A child of a music teacher, Joe showed curiosity in music and performing from an early age, and was playing professionally by the age of 16. Relocating to North East Ohio to attend the University of Akron, Joe was fortunate to be able to cultivate his love for piano and percussion simultaneously, studying with legendary teachers Dr. Larry Snider, Rock Wehrmann, Mark Gonder, Matt Dudack, Philip Thompson and Jack Schantz. Currently, Joe runs his own teaching studio, he’s the Music and Worship Director at Montrose Zion United Methodist Church in Bath and maintains an active and stylistically eclectic performing career.
