Artist description Any artist worth their salt tends to have a story (or two) to tell, and that's certainly the case with Lee Lindsey - a talented, idiosyncratic singer-songwriter, whose new album, 'I', released on - the Tall Poppy label, is packed with them. Fast times, happy times, wild times and darker times have all informed her work, an instinctive knowledge that to truly appreciate the good stuff, then you must experience the bad.

Music Style Folk Pop/Roots Rock

Artist History Lee was born in Ottawa, Ontario in Canada, growing up mostly on the Quebec side of the Ottawa River, her family moving for a short while to Vancouver Island British Columbia before returning to the Ottawa Valley. Lee left home at the early age of 15, guitar in hand and promise in her heart to start her world journey. Starting with Toronto & Montreal then on to live in Hamburg, London, Ibiza, New York, Paris, Florida and Colorado, before ultimately settling in London. Whilst in Nashville, Lee also performed some live shows - an important development, as the shows inspired her to form her first band when she returned to London - Delta Moon. The fun that she obviously derived from playing in the band informed her realisation that her future lay in being a singer / performer, as opposed to being solely a songwriter. All this against a background of failed personal relationships contributed to a rich fund of experience upon which to draw as inspiration for her songs. Eventually, she met up with Australian Producer / Engineer Jack Guy and a lot of things fell into place. Jack's influence on Lee was crucial; he encouraged her to pour her energies into a solo career, and, setting up a state-of-the-art home studio, the pair worked on the songs and sessions that would eventually become the 'I' album.

Group Members Lee Lindsey is presently a solo artist, although she does play with a band for live shows, most notable at Lee's own acoustic venue in London, Tall Poppy Presents Lee Lindsey & Friends.
