    [Winter 2010] "There is no true label or definition that one could apply to Misterlee, it stands up not only as its own sound, but provokes emotion in a way that most music can't these days" [Airscale, FolkItUp.net] 10 years of Misterlee has seen Lee Allatson's twisted visions manifest through 3 albums, some 200+ gigs in the UK and US including shows with amongst others Sebadoh, Duke Special, Mountain Goats, Jeffrey Lewis and Enon, with appearances at the Secret Garden Party, Summer Sundae and In The City; featured in Ten4 Mag, DiS, Artrocker and played on BBC6 and ResonanceFM. A new studio album 'this disquiet dog', recorded with long time collaborator and guitar player Jamie Smith, is set for release March 1st 2010 (Cat. Num. MISTERLEE4, Rubber Czech Records, CD album, distributed by Genepool/Universal).
