'Eddie Lee was found by explorers in the jungles of northern Michigan….He was feral. He knew not the ways of this world, only the language of music. Eddie learned quickly the modern ways and formed a band called Cowboy Shogun, which was a Japanese pop cover band in America. When Cowboy Shogun dissolved in 2009, Eddie was selected by Cheech and deemed, “I guess alrightâ€, by Jimmy the Creep to play bass for The Seventh Day Creeps. Eddie still adds his spectacular bass skills and showmanship to the Rancid-esque Rock and Roll of The Seventh Day Creeps today. Barbara Jean, an ancient immortal musician, had been beating the streets of Port Huron and Detroit for years as a solo act, as well as fronting an original rock and roll band called The Liars Club and playing keyboard for the goth-industrial dance band, N2 Submission. Barbara happened upon Eddie Lee in Port Huron in 2010. Barbara witnessed Eddie’s solo act, Yeddie in the Woods, at the brief local venue, The Spot, and the Roche Bar. Barbara found Eddie’s act to be a whirl wind, light filled, bubble making, confetti dashed-indie extravaganza. Barbara begged Eddie to join his band. Eddie was skeptical at first. He prepared a lengthy initiation, which included walking bare foot on hot coals, while playing a Pixies song on Kazoo. Barbara did not pass the first time. After 7 consecutive attempts to complete the grueling entry process (She always fell off the coals in the second chorus), Eddie finally agreed to let Barbara Jean play keyboard in his band. Eddie and Barbara decided to learn some old time blues, country, jazz and rock and roll along with their combined original tunes so they could play more places they normally would be thrown out of. Listen to Yeddie in the Woods, with beer or coffee, or a shot of tequila, whatever is your fancy. Brought to you by The Marty Lee Show. (Marty is the Panda)' |
