PHOTO SHOOT: A Big Thank You to Nashoba Valley Winery for letting GS Picard and Lee be photographed on their beautiful property on May 13th by photographer William Wells MacFeeley. Nashoba Winery in Bolton MA has a great Wine Shoppe, winery tours, pick-your-own-fruit orchards and the amazing J's Restaurant!
RADIO AIRPLAY: Lee's CD "blonde intuition & other good voodoo" is now being played on 30 college radio stations throughout the US including KSSU Sacramento, WVOF Fairfield, WLJS Jacksonville, KRUA Anchorage, WWUH West Hartford, WLUR Lexington, The Blaze Phoenix....
TV APPEARANCE: Lee appeared on the Tim Qualls Show in Delaware at the end of April to promote her CD and performed "Ooh La La" live. Video to come.
In the midst of releasing this latest CD, Lee and her band are gearing up to start showcasing the new music. Now working with Foley Entertainment, Lee's CD is her fourth and features 13 songs, nearly all written by the self-taught Canadian songwriter who calls New England home for the last several years. On this release, Lee’s changed her name from Villeneuve to Villaire, but her music continues to evolve in the same direction, highlighting her unique lyrical style that runs the gamut from sexy to playful to poignant, all emotionally delivered by this powerhouse vocalist and her talented band.
The band is: Lee on vocals and guitar, Dave Gaudet on guitar and vocals, Kris Lucander on bass, Tom Ruckey on drums and Adam Bergeron on piano and synth.
Here’s the band in action at a recent show: Live
Advance copies of the CD are available both in CD format or as downloadable digital tracks at www.cdbaby.com or at www.amazon.com
Lee’s originally from Montreal and has been writing songs since the age of 14. She’s penned songs for Canadian blues legend Bob Walsh, rocker Alain Paquette and Scottish country band Evangeline, and released her first solo CD in 2001 just prior to moving to the U.S. Two other CDs followed, including an acoustic live recording in 2007.
