Kerry Leimer, known as K. Leimer professionally, is an American electronic musician based in Seattle, Washington. He is a founding member of the record label Palace of Lights, which formed in 1979. Known for a more solitary practice, Leimer rarely performed live. The moniker, "K." is a reference to Kafka's reclusive character, Josef K (who appears in both The Trial and The Castle)." Active since the 1970s, Leimer primarily self-released his music for several decades, gaining an underground following. His music has seen a resurgence in popularity after much of his catalog was reissued by New York Based label RVNG Intl. in the 2010s.
