In 2007, Singer, Harmonica Player, Songwriter Jimi Lee (JimiLeeBand.com) teamed up with the extraordinary voice and bass playing of Andrew Venson (VensonAndFriends.net) to form "JIMI LEE & MR. VENSON". When they add the “Magic” of Bart Madeley, (guitarist from ("The Platters" and “Toby Anderson”), and Rodney Hyder, (drummer from "Blue Mist"), the power and dynamic sound of this "Super-Group" radiates an energy that moves the audience who can literally "feel" the music. "JIMI LEE & MR. VENSON" must be experienced as well as heard.
Damn you guys rock! I wanna start playing harmonica...It's hard to find the time right now though. Maybe soon. How's everything going? It's good to be friends now. Message me back :)
“There was a guy who played blues long before we had electricity…named Lonnie Johnson. Lonnie Johnson was like Duke Ellington was with jazz. He played with everybody…so I grew up wanting to be Lonnie Johnson.” -B.B. King Downbeat Magazine-Feb, 2006
Come and check out our Lonnie Johnson project and give us your input!!
Hey, Jimi Lee, looks like you got a new thing going on -- it sounds great on the myspace and you gotta lotta gigs lined up -- looking forward to hearing you soon. You know I love blues ... and, you, too! :)
