Eftersom vi är I en förnyelseprocess just nu har vi tyvärr inga bra bilder på oss I vår nuvarande konstellation. Vill du ha en högupplöst bild på oss som vi såg ut för ett par månader sedan kan vi givetvis maila en sådan.

Skicka ett mail till info@leemarvelous.com

 

Since were renewing ourselves right now, we dont have any good high res pictures of our selves in our present constellation, but if you will settle for one of how we looked a couple of months ago wed be glad to send one to you..

Plese email us at info@leemarvelous.com

Lee Marvelous. A single malt. A set of two-tone shoes. A three-piece suit. A four piece band. Swedish country music combo Lee Marvelous sure got their numbers straight, even though listening to their first full-length album is a bit of a surprise. This is not country. This is not rock. This is not countryrock. This is pure frustration. Frustration carefully molded into the shape of country music. Given their origin and background its understandable. Being a country band from Sweden isnt exactly choosing the easiest way to fame and fortune...

 

The band have had innumerable club performances through out the years, including two shows on national television, with frequent guests supporting the country & western feel.

Their 13 original songs debut album, One step right behind, is released on Dusty Records (distributed in Europe by El Toro Records).

 

Lee Marvelous are:

Peter Frövik: Lead vocals, Acoustic guitar

Andrew Dry: Electric bass, Backing vocals

Daniel Wigstrand: Pedal steel

Robert Karlsson: Drums

---

Frequent guest:

Ralf Fredblad: Banjo, Fiddle

Press/reviews

"Lee Marvelous are a rockin country band from Sweden. With a terrific retro feel and some catchy original songs ... the band really kicks ... There's definitely a Johnny Cash

influence going on here and if you like the sort of thing BR549 do, then youll probably like this - and like that group Lee Marvelous sound as if they'd be great live too."

(Julie Flaskett, Country Music People, USA)

 

"Swedens Lee Marvelous sounds like it has spent a formative year as the house band at a roadhouse on the outskirts of Stockholm, whooping it up with good-time country honky-tonk fresh from the U.S. circa 1958. Yee haw".

(From the editors of  "download.com", USA)

 

"A brilliant sound with galloping guitars and baritone voice crucial to the genre. One step right behind is one of the best Country Rock albums this year."

           (Daniel Albini, ,Italy)

 

"A smashing Swedish sensation! The band that was formed at a Johnny Cash gig has their first album out and it knocks you down at once! I thought about how to describe this music and the most appropriate I could come up with was "Electric bluegrass".".

(Polar Internet Radio, Sweden)

 

"The band formed at a Johnny Cash-concert 1997, and is right now enjoying fantastic reviews in the Swedish press... ...feels like the updated version of classic bands like "Jason and the Scorchers"...

(Border Music, Sweden)
