Lee started learning to play guitar at the tender age of 27. His first guitar was an electric fender where he to learned to play for about a year. However after listening to Bob Dylan and Nick Drake for the first time he was drawn towards the acoustic guitar and has never looked back. Shortly after picking up his first acoustic guitar, he wrote his first song, he then wrote another one and another! For the first few years of his song writing career, songs came easily and quickly. It appeared that songs had been stored up inside for years and were just bursting to get out. The music, however, came a lot slower, and although Lee was continuing to write song after song, the music couldn’t keep up. After a frustrating time trying to put music to his songs, Lee decided to find a band that could help him put music to his words. After spending a few years in different local bands with varying success, Lee decided that he needed to spend time on his own again to develop his own style so deicded to leave the band thing for a while. After spending several months at home reworking his songs and spending hours working on his vocals, he decided to gig on his own. After receiving positive responses and praise regarding his songs he was filled with a new sense of confidence and a much improved singing voice.
With continuous praise and support from friends, family and muso’s alike and continuous admiration for his song writing, Lee is set on a mission to spread his music to as wider an audience as possible.
