The leitmotiv band has been created in the summer 2001 - but the nucleus was born some time before on the beach of the Ionic Sea, at the crossing with the Salento, in the South-East of Italy.

We live in many places: Taranto, Rome, Milan, Paris... We play a hard folk rock lo-fi acoustic grunge bossa and Mediterranean music, but actually we prefer you to give us your own etiquette!

leitmotiv n. m. Thème, phrase, formule ou idée qui revient plusieurs reprises dans un uvre, qui joue sur un élément récurrent. leitmotiv is a music project, it's a band, maybe a rock band, maybe not. it's the will to play, the need to say. it's a concept of indipendence: it's indie. leitmotiv è l'evidenza che non è stata ancora scritta, ma più volte sentita.
