Leste has been the singer of Bang Tango since the group’s start in 1988 and during a period when they went on hiatus Leste formed and fronted the Los Angeles based Beautiful Creatures.
Beautiful Creatures signed a deal with Warner Bros. and released 2 records in 2001 and 2005.
After Beautiful Creatures seemed to run their course, Leste who at some points juggled both bands eventually returned and rebooted Bang Tango.
