Lyricist Lee Lozowick Brings the '60s and '70s Back to Life

The Lee Lozowick Band

(View promotional copy in French.)

Lee Lozowick is an alchemist songwriter who combines down-to-earth lyrics with stellar performances to move audiences from all walks of life. Based in Arizona, he has been hitting the road for 20 years, playing all the independent American and European blues and rock venues.

In recent years, he has put out two poignant solo albums with his original lyrics, produced and composed by Paul Durham of the renowned American rock group Black Lab. Mr Durham is also credited with tracks on “Spiderman” and “Blade: Trinity”.

Songs from Écrasé par l’Amour (Crushed by love, in 2005) and L’Ange Brisé (Broken Angel, in 2006) were performed by Lee and his new band during the 2007 European summer tour.

The 2008 Tour will feature some of the songs recorded on L’Ange Brisé, like "Please" - Lee's evocative portrayal of human vulnerability. Powerful renditions of rock classics are also in order: Willie Dixon’s Little Red Rooster, Bob Seger’s Turn the Page and The Allman Brothers Band Whippin’ Post, to name just a few. This band can rock from Bob Dylan’s folk rock to Ray Charles’ rhythm and blues and, of course, to the tune of LGB’s nasty and gritty rock. Lee is also capable of taking on the heart and soul of classic blues, in his own words or with the legacy of Albert King, Elmore James, Lightnin’ Hopkins, Muddy Waters and others.

Lee’s deep and gravely voice will be complemented by a three-women chorus with a blues sway, a stupendous lead guitar, an inspiring violin, two brothers in the rhythm section, both discreet and efficient at the drums and the bass guitar, a wild keyboard and flute, and a saxophonist who sets the mood.

Lee is also known to draw surprise guests like the bewitching young singer who fused her sacred Indian chant with an electrified blues-rock and roll at Bourges this past summer. Audiences can expect the unexpected at a live performance of The Lee Lozowick Band!
