I first saw Lee Winright one night at a table jam in The Cowboy Capital. He was easy to remember ... belted out a few songs I never heard before: I reckon they were originals (that always catches my attention).
Lee is a stylist, carrying on the Texas Music tradition that flourishes in the Hill Country. He loves doing his own songs his own way.
The edge in his vocals matches the driving edge in his music. Lee plays a full catalogue of songwriting styles, from his traditional country-flavored original Muddy River (My Personal favorite!) to his rockabilly-sounding Texas Tornado and all points in between (and even to the sides). I asked him which original was his favorite and his reply was ... Im just amazed that I wrote em.
Keep an eye out for this up-and-coming Texas artist!
