Lee has over thirty six years experience in advisory and consultancy as an engineer.

He didn't just live through the disco era, he was one of the people who created it. In the 1970s and 1980s, Lee toured widely and found himself in great demand for nightclubs and private functions.

He built a reputation as a respected performer in his own right, able to adopt styles for both live-event showmanship and for broadcasting. 

Many fans say Lee has a voice made for radio with a knowledge of music to match. And his passion for music of all genres continues.
