Rory McLeod is a British folk singer-songwriter born in London. As well as singing, his performances include storytelling in the tradition of the travelling minstrel or troubadour and playing a wide range of instruments including guitar, harmonica, trombone and his own invention the 'stomping box'.

He has travelled widely performing and has released seven albums:

* Songs for Big Little People (to be released in May 2007)

* Brave Faces (2005)

* Mouth to Mouth (2000)

* Lullabies for Big Babies (1997)

* Travelling Home (1992)

* Footsteps and Heartbeats (1989)

* Kicking The Sawdust (1986)

* Angry Love (1985)

Rory's songs are invariably big-hearted story-like ballads about family, justice, racism, poverty, immigration, traveling and love. His live shows are particularly impressive - it's hard to believe he performs with such a full and busy sound when there's only him on the stage.
