His approach is marked by meticulous attention to texture and nuance, using his instrument to explore the spaces between notes rather than solely focusing on melodic lines.

In his songwriting, Leicht often delves into themes of introspection and human connection, crafting pieces that resonate with sincerity and reflective storytelling.

This duality allows listeners to find their own stories within the music while maintaining a rich tapestry of sound that feels alive in each performance.
