My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 2/3/2005
Band Website: sonialee.net
Band Members: My wife and I made reservations at the Blue Bird not knowing who the singer was going to be. We drove to Nashville from Roanoke, Virginia on vacation. The only real plans we had was to visit the cafe. To our amazement, Sonia was the best part of our four day trip to the music city. Her stage presence, professional stature, and top quality voice along with other fine musicians made our visit to the Blue Bird an evening to always remember. We listened to her CD twice while on the way back to Virginia. It sounds even better at home. Thanks so much and nothing but the best to Sonia Lee. New fans, Jeff and Maureen Stump Roanoke, Virginia
Influences: My influences were Fleetwood Mac, Beatles, Rolling Stones, and Elton John. And obviously, the Ukrianian folk music I was brought up with. I used to sit around the campfire at Ukrainian scouts camp each year and sing the songs on this album. I know it's different...hope you enjoy it. Music transcends language - but just in case you need to know what I'm singing about, it's all in there if you buy the cd.
