Sean Lee - Backroom Lullabies
Sean is a singer/songwriter from Philadelphia. I first heard his music about a year ago at school. Immediately, I thought to myself ‘oh great, another singer/songwriter…borrring.’ I was totally wrong.
Sean’s voice reminds me of a cross between Elvis Costello and Bob Dylan. Apparently, it was his babysitter who got him to sing when he was a little kid. His music is a blend of rock, country, and even a bit of rockabilly.
It was tough for me to choose a song off of his EP, The Apes Have Escaped, which came out in June of ‘07. All of his songs are incredibly solid and individual. It’s refreshing to hear an album or an EP where you can actually differentiate between songs.
Backroom Lullabies has an infectious energy to it… certainly a good one to get you going in the morning. I feel that this is a song that makes you want to listen to more.
Sean’s EP is available on CD Baby, which you can access through his Myspace page. It’s a whopping $4.99 for 5 songs. It’s a good investment, I promise.
