Emergenza Fest
Reptilez, San Antonio

The final band of the night .. Lee Winright - flipped the script on the crowd at Reptilez with a country rock sound straight outta Texas. With the addition of electric guitar, bass and drums, Lee's acoustic guitar and brash red dirt vocals got toes tapping and faces smiling. Lou Hobbs, eat your heart out!

Story & photos
by Scott Lacine

I first saw Lee Winright one night at a table jam in The Cowboy Capital. He was easy to remember ... belted out a few songs I never heard before: I reckon they were originals (that always catches my attention).

Lee is a stylist, carrying on the Texas Music tradition that flourishes in the Hill Country. He loves doing his own songs his own way.

The edge in his vocals matches the driving edge in his music. Lee plays a full catalogue of songwriting styles, from his traditional country-flavored original Muddy River (My Personal favorite!) to his rockabilly-sounding Texas Tornado and all points in between (and even to the sides). I asked him which original was his favorite and his reply was ... Im just amazed that I wrote em.

Keep an eye out for this up-and-coming Texas artist!

Assessment:
Superior ++ Performance Skills.

Lee, you have the greatest outlaw voice Ive heard in years.

Really, you have great commercial songs and a good future as a recording artist at one of the alternative record labels i.e. Lucky Dog or Lost Highway Records. Great train song.

I think its a big hit record!
