ALVIN LEE began playing guitar at age 13 and soon formed the core of the band Ten Years After. With Lee as guitarist, singer, songwriter, TYA first toured America in 1968 at the invitation of legendary ‘Fillmore’ promoter Bill Graham. Audiences were immediately taken with the band's innovative mix of blues, swing jazz and rock and Lee's distinctive, soulful, rapid fire guitar playing. His virtuoso performance at Woodstock, captured on film in the documentary of the festival, remains a standard today for many guitarists and continues to introduce him to new music fans all over the world. Lee has continued to evolve as a musician and has worked with a host of rock and roll greats, like Jerry Lee Lewis, Steve Winwood, Ron Wood, Jon Lord and George Harrison. Always innovative, Lee's music releases cover a wide range of musical styles, with an emphasis on his love of blues and rock and roll. With an over 40 year history of rousing recordings and live shows, he has earned his place in music history. “Alvin Lee in Tennessee” was recorded with rock and roll legends Scotty Moore and D.J. Fontana and released in 2004, and was followed in 2007 by "Saguitar" and "Still On the Road to Freedom’" (2012) On March 6, 2013, Alvin Lee passed away unexpectedly. His family’s on-going search for unreleased musical gems to keep his legacy alive has resulted in releases such as "The Last Show" and "Live at the Academy of Music, New York 1975". Although Alvin has left us, his music lives on.
