Featured Artist:
Will Lee, Bass
As young bassist Will Lee's reputation
spread, trumpeter Randy Brecker called him out of class
one day at the University of Miami and invited him to
NYC to audition for "Dreams". In New York, Will's
career soared. He toured with B.J.Thomas, Horace Silver,
Bette Midler, Barry Manilow, The Brecker Brothers, and
Herbie Mann. Gaining experience in the commercial field,
Will found himself in high demand. As a bassist and singer,
he's recorded with an extensive array of top performers
including David Sanborn, Boz Scaggs Diane Schuur, Tom
Scott, Neil Sedaka, Carly Simon, Frank Sinatra, Phoebe
Snow, Ronnie Spector, The Spinners, Spyro Gyra, Ringo
Starr, Steely Dan, Cat Stevens and Barbra Streisand.
In addition, Will played in the New York "24th Street
Band" which had great success in Japan, giving him
a solo artist career that yielded him a top 5 single.
Most recently, his solo CD entitled "OH!" reached
the #1 position on the "Jazz Beyond" chart there.
Will can now be seen every week night across the US playing
at the Ed Sullivan Theatre as the bassist with Paul Shaffer
and the "CBS Orchestra" on the wildly popular
"Late Show with David Letterman" and you can
hear him playing, singing and speaking on many commercials
on both television and radio. Bee Gees.
