We are…Radio Nowhere

Barry was born to sing! His earliest memory is dancing in his crib and hearing Elvis Presley’s Blue Suede Shoes. He was the loudest voice in his school choir! At twelve his father gave him a guitar. That was the year he first heard Led Zeppelin on vinyl. At eighteen he met some guys and formed a band, in the Army no less. Back then there was a lot of R&B or Soul music. Earth, Wind & Fire, Commodores, Stylistics, but also Elton John, Black Sabbath and KISS were on the radio. A few years later he went to college to study Art, Music and Theatre, eventually getting a BFA in Theatre/Acting. He’s played in bands, trios and solos in any setting he could find. From Key West dive bars to auditoriums, at festivals and more dive bars in more places he can remember. His musical taste has expanded throughout the years. His playlist includes everything from Willie Nelson to Greta Van Fleet, to Miranda Lambert to Bach or Tool. Music is still the one thing he loves more than anything else. Most days you can find him strumming on a guitar and singing, even if no one is listening.

Lee is a self-taught bassist with his own improvised style, but very much leans towards southern rock, country, blues, bluegrass, classic rock, rockabilly and Contemporary Christian music.  He has played for multiple bands around the Charlotte NC area, including Country Image Band, Crimson, Maple & Pine, Gridlock, SPIN, Toxic Spouse, TTW Band, The Mod60s, and Wagon Load A Trouble.  His worship team experience includes Grace Covenant Church, Denver UMC, and Pursuit Worship in Denver NC.
