Brook Lee has established himself as a unique and influential emerging talent on the Southern California music scene. His award winning live shows are raw and engaging. His lyrics are powerful and challenging. And with 2 full length studio albums already under his belt, as well as a commitment to touring, his new album is dropping at just the right time.His guitar, piano and harmonica-driven lyrical reflections are often as rhythmic as they are melodic. With a Baritone like Johnny Cash and the lyrical sensibilities of Bob Dylan his sound is distinct and moving. In 2003 he walked away with 2 Orange County Music Award nominations and a win for Best Live Acoustic. At 27, Brook is set to release his 3rd full length album tentatively titled The Truth Unties. With backup players including Keith Mitchell (Mazzy Star, Capital Records) on drums, Paul Mitchell (Arbor Circle) strings, and a myriad of local artists from the OC/LA scene, this album is eagerly anticipated by fans and critics alike.

Press Info

"45 minutes of music as inspiration" OCWeekly,RichKane
“Brook Lee, who was virtually unknown…is now respected by people not only locally but by people who had the opportunity to hear him throughout the OCMA journey”LiveMagazineJasonMartinez “Brook Lee’s heartfelt music brings to mind Bradley Nowell and Jack Johnson”
Daily Pilot-Suzie Harrison
Live show review @ The Coach House January 2004:“Brook Lee is a solo performer who has forged a sound all his own. For one person and a guitar, this is no mean feat. His songs are varied, but the most impressive are those with little melody, delivered in a stream of consciousness style, the words being spat out in a venomous rant against injustice love and or life. Then he will counter these folk rap pieces with a gentle lilting ballad .Lee quickly won over the audience. It is very difficult to not be impressed with the with the power of Lee’s performance.” Live Magazine-Sue Nami
