Bobby Lee (35)

Bobby Lee trades in a wide screen brand of cosmic country-folk, full of space and pawn shop guitars, sometimes high and lonesome, at others gently funky, occasionally reshaping itself into eyes-to-the-skies psychedelic forms. There are touches of JJ Cale's analogue Americana, the swampy groove of Tony Joe White and Richard Thompson's sinewy, modal guitar work with Fairport Convention. Amps hum in the warm afternoon sun, kids and dogs snooze on the grass and broken drum machines keep time with the universe… Bobby is a touring member of West Coast Country Rock/Power Pop group GospelbeacH as well as heading up the folk/psych promoters Heretics' Folk Club.
