Music
My husband John and I played in “the Penny Lee” band for 15 years, in and around the Toronto area as well as State Side. We perform many musical genres, especially blues jazz and classic rock. Since relocating to Prince Edward County, we’ve settled into a calmer approach to performing, playing wineries, stage productions, fund raisers, private clubs and jazz bars. Here are some samples for quick listening. Or you can check us out on YouTube. If you would like to book us, please contact us.
