Ezra Lee"Ezra Lee smashes out ‘50s era roots rock’n’roll with the raw integrity that comes from decades of performing in pubs and clubs around Australia, although he's just as comfortable on huge stages in the UK, Europe and the USA. Ezra’s repertoire is everything from thumping boogie woogie to the most soulful, tear-in-your beer honky tonk, all propelled along by his red-hot rhythm section"
Karl Bergerson - Three Of A Kind Music
