From the swamps of south Louisiana, LeTrainiump is a New Orleans based Pop/R&B band. LeTrainiump's sound is a unique mix of smooth R&B vocal hooks, layers of 80s synthesizers, deep funk drum and bass grooves, all wrapped in a 90s aesthetic.
If the music somehow doesn't get you moving, the energy will. The band's live performances are inclusive, captivating, and cathartic. Their powerful live show has created demand for LeTrainiump on stages of all sizes - from small clubs, to regional festivals, to a New Orleans Pelicans halftime show.
Moreover, the band has amassed an impressive roster of collaborators despite their short 4 year career. Some of these include members of the Grammy nominated Tank and The Bangas, Grammy winning engineer Reginald "ReggieNic" Nicholas (PJ Morton), and Pell. Additionally, LeTrainiump has performed alongside Big Freedia, Yoke Lore, Daisy the Great, Soul Rebels, People Museum, TC Superstar, and THEBROSFRESH.
“LeTrainiump is the project of the New Orleans based future pop star and in it his consistent stretching of notions in playing your hand in the game of life and love, depicts ultimate understanding and affection. ”
“LeTrainiump Richard—mononymously styled simply “LeTrainiump”—sings, composes, and produces pop music that blends the likes of Michael Jackson, New Edition and SWV, flavored with a synthesized something that revamps the ’90s pop spirit that he embodies.”
“LeTrainiump resurrects what made that ’90s pop sound so great and turns it into his own, fresh music. He isn’t replicating performers like Jackson or Whitney Houston — he’s studying the foundations of what made them icons in the first place.”
