Lee Sankey: Harpist, guitarist, composer, arranger, producer etc. Leader of ambitious jazzblues outfits. Decided to enter the world of music after being immensely impressed by James Hunter and his harpplaying at a live gig!
Lee Sankey was born in London, England in 1970. Principally known for his harmonica playing, he is also a, songwriter and guitarist. His band, The Lee Sankey Group, which toured all over Europe up until 2004, featured a core five piece band with the addition of a three or five piece horn section. Stylistically Lee’s music is a blend of jazz, roots and funk elements mixed with blues ideals. He coined the phrase “Bluebop” in 1997 as a descriptive term for the music on his debut "My Day Is Just Beginning ". Influences range from Muddy Waters, BB King, Little Walter to Canonball Adderley, Charles Mingus to Tom Waits. The EP ”She’s Not Alone” by The Lee Sankey Group contains two studio tracks, including the title track and three live recordings. Despite the fact that it is an EP and therefore only contains five songs, you get value for your money with almost fifty minutes of blues, jazz and funk. The class of the musicians comes to the fore especially during the live numbers. Guitarist Matt Schofield clearly leaves his mark with his characteristic funky blues sound. The jazz comes mainly from the horns. In addition, Sankey himself shows in the closing ”Stone in My Shoe” that he is quite skilled on the harmonica. ”She’s Not Alone” is a wonderful EP by a band that is not very well-known, but one that belonged to the top in the British scene. I say belonged, because Lee Sankey has since thrown in the towel. Too bad, but fortunately he has been the springboard for contemporary top blues musicians such as Ian Siegal and Matt Schofield.
