Hailing from Arkansas, David Leonard began his professional musical career as the lead vocalist for the Christian pop/rock band Jackson Waters, starting in 2003. In their short existence, Jackson Waters released two albums: All That I Know (2004), and Come Undone (2007). After Jackson Waters announced an infinite break in 2009, Leonard was briefly a backup musician and singer with NEEDTOBREATHE. Wanting to make music that was more authentic, raw, and rooted in the word of God, Leonard left NEEDTOBREATHE. He teamed up with Leslie Jordan and formed the successful praise and worship duo All Sons & Daughters. All Sons & Daughters released four albums: Season One (2012), Live (2013), All Sons & Daughters (2014), and Poets & Saints (2016). They are most known for their worship hit Great Are You Lord. The duo parted ways in 2018. On March 15, 2019, Leonard released his first solo album The Wait, continuing where he left off with All Sons & Daughters, but with more of a pop flare.
