INTERVIEW: Lolly Lee

How would you classify your music?

Rock, Fa-So-La, Country, Swamp

Who are some of your top 5 musical influences?

Peggy Lee, Sherrie Giles, Don Tinsley, Joni Mitchell, Elvis Costello

What do you want fans to take from your music?

Toe tapping, challenging the lyrics and solving the puzzle.

How’s the music scene in your locale?

The music scene here is a diverse family of the best players and creatives anywhere.

What is the best concert you have been to? What do you like most about playing live?

Back in the day-Leon Russell and The Shelter People. Recently- Tori Amos. Playing live? The musical comradery and energy.

Is there a song on your latest CD release here that stands out as your personal favorite, and why?  

Seriously?

How have you evolved as an artist over the last year?

More like how have I coped, adjusted after losing my darling Papa, my sweet large headed pit bull, then my husband who was and is the love of my life. If it wasn’t for Anthony and Savana Crawford, Their patience, guidance, musicality, generosity.

I’d be under the covers in the dark with a note on the screen porch saying “Go Away’ or ‘Come Back With A Warrant’,

If you could meet, play a gig, co-write a song, have dinner, have a drink with any band or artist (dead or alive) who would it be?  

Jeff Lynne

What’s next for you?  

A nap!
