After playing guitar for 6 years, Lee was turned onto bass at the age of 16. "I heard Primus and that was it!." The discordant grooves of Primus and the energetic funk/punk style of Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers where Lee's first major impressions on what it would be like to play the bass guitar and so he started learning the abrasive styles of such players.

After years of playing bass and guitar with successive rock bands (with private tuition with Dean himself) Lee decided that he would study Popular Music and Recording at the University of Salford. "Studying popular music was a broadening experience that took me away from being just an average rock musician, it gave me a solid grounding in jazz and other styles of popular music showing me how to be tasteful and write parts relevant to the needs of the music."

Lee has always enjoyed the demanding nature of instrumental rock music and is looking forward to getting out there playing his chops with Dean O' Shea. "What's great about Dean's music for me as a bass player is that is requires technical proficiency and maintains its musical substance keeping my technique, intellect and sense of groove occupied, more so than this... It rocks!"

Lee's favourite bass players at the moment are Jaco Patorious, Billy Sheehan and Trevor Dunn (Mr Bungle).
