“On October 25th 2003, I was invited to perform a ‘Healthy Concert’ in Brighton. Healthy concerts are very unique – intimate acoustic music evenings held in people’s houses around the UK. The Saturday evening I performed was a special night for me and the songs. We were in a house near to the seafront, and a warm audience of around 30 people were gathered to listen. Some of the songs from my debut album ‘Shapeshifting’ made a more ‘stripped’ appearance, and some new material was played for the first ever time. The concert was then released as a limited edition album in 2003. Now, in late 2006, I have selected 7 of those songs, and enhanced the sound quality, as well as adding a few new sound ‘surprises’ to the tracks. I hope you enjoy this Little Wonderland.” (Harris, November 2006) REVIEWS FOR HARRIS: "Harris’ music has a romance reminding us why we fall in love with life. He creates sumptuous harmonies and rare for a male singer songwriter, he manages to sing of love with sincerity and tenderness. Lee himself is charming and engaging with a passion for music that exudes from his work" NICK TAYLOR - Attitude Magazine "Harris really sings from the heart...I'm a true fan." PAUL CHI - Musician and founder of Healthy Concerts "Stumbling is a highly emotive, cinematic song which pulls all the right strings…understatement is undoubtedly and art form and Harris utilizes it superbly… …Innocence I remember is a highly evocative ballad, which like many of the songs here, put me in mind of Paul Simon, but hell, there's nothing wrong with a comparison to one of the master songwriters of our time is there?" MAKING MUSIC MAGAZINE BIOGRAPHY: HARRIS is Lee Harris - a singer songwriter from Brighton, England..... After many years in music in various ways (including being a backing singer for The Pet Shop Boys on their album Very), he released this, his self-penned debut album Shapeshifting in 2002. Produced by Adam Fuest, the album wowed fans and critics alike, and was noted for its "...unusual beauty - a truly unique album". After its release Harris did a series of live dates and in 2004 received the nominations of Best Male Artist and Best Album from Pan Artist, after topping their Internet chart for well over a year. He then started working on the follow up album, originally intended as another solo album. Along the way however, different collaborations and musical journeys with other musicians happened, one of which (with Daniel Lundholm) led to the creation of the mini album - Glimmers & Silhouettes (Lost Songs: 2003-2004). His second full length studio album is due for release later in 2007 and features work by musicians such as Javier Vargas (Vargas Blues Band), Paco Fernandez (Cafe del Mar) and Gregers Krarup (Cornucopia/Solid World), and has been worked on in countries as diverse as Ibiza, Sweden, Russia, Spain and England. As well as working on the new album, 2006 also saw the release of a Harris live album - Little Wonderland (also available through CDBaby). In December 2006, Lee was interviewed live on BBC Southern Counties Radio after his song Time will Remember was voted Song of the Week by a Music Industry Panel. The mini album, Glimmers & Silhouettes (Lost Songs: 2003-2004) is slated for release in early July 2007. Between Venus and Mars is currently due to be released in time for Autumn 2007.
