Leo Nocentelli Concert History

Leo Nocentelli (born 15 June 1946 in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States) is one of the founding members of the legendary New Orleans funk band, The Meters. He has been credited for popular funk songs such as "Cissy Strut", "People Say" and "Hey Pocky Way". He often plays a hollowbody Gibson such as ES-335 or a Fender Starcaster. Nocentelli recorded a solo album entitled Another Side in 1971, but it remained unreleased until the Light In The Attic record label gave the LP its long overdue release in late 2021.
