Have a Good Time ... All the Time

About Me

The Tim Lee 3 was born in late 2006 when guitarist/singer/songwriter Tim Lee and bassist/singer/songwriter Susan Bauer Lee needed a drummer for a string of shows in the South. They called on Rodney Cash, a friend and former drummer who appeared on Tim’s “Concrete Dog” album. The trio worked up enough material to play the shows, then hit the woodshed over the winter to develop new material. Melding a variety of influences, The 3 hit on a swampy, rock and blues-infused sound that Steve Wildsmith of the Maryville Daily Times described as sounding “like X, if they ended up in a drunken jam with Crazy Horse.”In February of ’07, the Tim Lee 3 traveled to Tucson, Ariz., to record eight songs at Wavelab Studios with Craig Schumacher (Neko Case, Steve Wynn & the Miracle 3, Calexico). Since their return, the TL3 have continually added new material to their repertoire, while embarking on a busy schedule of live shows around their native east Tennessee and beyond, sharing stages with the likes of the Bottle Rockets, the Drams, Mitch Easter, Steve Wynn & the Miracle 3, Magnapop, Dave Barbe, the Moaners and Blue Mountain.With numerous live shows under their belt, the TL3 plans to return to the studio soon to finish their debut album, which will be out in early 2008.
