The line up
Nadine Lee
Nadine Lee is an artist with more to her than meets the eye. Nadine has a deepness to her music which triggers emotional connectivity and honesty. In a word Nadine Lee is 'REAL'.
Nadine is a drummer, bass player and singer/songwriter in that order and gives 100% to every performance no matter where it is.
The range of artists & composers Nadine has worked alongside is a reflection of her professionalism within the music industry.
Artists include: The London Philharmonic Orchestra, Annie Lennox, Stephen Warbeck, Jack Thorne, Cece Winans (USA recording artist), Ekklesia (UK recording artist), London Community Gospel Choir, Lamar, Jamilia, Bryan McFaden, Katie Mueller, P Diddy etc
For Nadine music is not just a beat, rhythm or melody it's the window to her soul, so you could say, the truth always comes out.

Simon Lee Sax
Simon Lee is a R&B, Soul, Gospel and Jazz Saxophonist based in the UK, he is quoted by many as having a wonderful Soulful Sound that cuts into the heart of the listener.
What shaped Simon's playing style was his Dad's love of Jazz. He would regularly take Simon to concerts and festivals in and around London. The Record player was the centre of attraction at home as they would sit and listen to the greats.
Simon's faith has also helped to shape his playing. When Simon began to attend Church in his early 20's, he met some very welcoming friends that gave him the opportunity to play in church every week, this helped to bring the soul in his playing out. The constant nurturing from fellow musicians pushed Simon to study for his Jazz degree and to take up his love of music as a full time profession.
Simon is a keen composer and arranger, he also enjoys playing in big bands as well as small ensembles and solo work.
