Artist description
In a world of music where originality is almost nil, in comes Harvey Lee with a style all his own. Coming from a musical family, his father played bass in a slew of Soul and R&B bands in the Sixties and seventies, Harvey began playing drums at the age of three and performing by the age of five.
After backing up just about every kind of band there was, he wasn't satisfied with performing other artists music, and one day picked up a guitar. Being a drummer, he wasn't all that interested in learning the normal guitar chords and technique, instead letting his intuition lead him into a whole New World of playing and writing. His unorthodox guitar style put him into a different league of chord structures, which is evident on his debut full-length CD 'Begin'.
His style is a combination of sweet soul and rock and roll, with a voice a lot of singers would kill for, going from a smooth falsetto into a gritty raunch, never missing a note. You can also hear that writing from a drummer's standpoint; his drum playing is an intrical part of his song structure, which most songwriters don't really take into account. Harvey has also become something of a poet, though he might not admit to it, but you can hear it in songs like 'Lavish Girl' where he sings of the waitress he longs for "with eyes so dreamy I nearly fell asleep."
As first records go 'Begin' goes far beyond all expectations, and is nothing short of a triumph for Harvey. It is what he calls "the record of a lifetime", and one listen to it there'll be no doubt that you'll have found your new favorite artist in Harvey Lee.
