New video und radio feature
Message from Lee:
Hi Y’all!
The mighty Babylon Slim emerged from his Appalachian Compound last week just long enough to deliver the new live video from our show in lovely Norderstedt Germany earlier this year. We hope he will re-emerge soon with more teevee treats but until then please enjoy “Ashes” recorded at the MusicStar this past March 1st.
warmest regards,
your
Lee
Along with announcing the release of the “Ashes” live video we would like to make everyone aware of the Leinehertz Radio “59 to 1 William Lee Self Special” that will be broadcast on the 30th September at 21:00 which includes a new interview with Lee, some never before broadcast live and studio rarities as well as the debut of the recently completed Single “Home” b/w “(Here Come’s) Tomorrow’s”, recorded and mixed by our own Marc Balance and mastered by Tom Meyer – more on the new single soon!
Leinehertz Radio is available online via their website or the DRadio app, on 102.15 Kabel Deutschland and of course on 106.5 FM in the metropolitan Hannover area….
there are new photos in our Wood and Wire gallery as well if you care to cast a glance… and a final note: our new booking agent, Ralf Neuman, will be handling all of the bands live appearances in the near future.
New live video “thug in blue”
For your viewing and listening pleasure we are happy to present the next song in our live video series: “Thug In Blue” filmed a few weeks ago at the MusicStar in Norderstedt and edited again from our friend Babylon Slim (aka Phillip Stillman) in his Tower of Babel compound…
We also have a photo of Lee and one of his earliest influences the legendary Atlanta musician Thermos Greenwood (aka Tommy Dean) who is currently in Europe for the first time since recording with Joe South in London in the early 1970′s…. please also check out this article about Thermos!
Live video “She”
Fresh for the spring holidays here is another live track from our March 1st 2014 show in Norderstedt. Its another extended live version of a track from the “Wichita” lp called “She”… yet another excellent editing job by Babylon Slim and his Tower of Babel editing crew, we hope you like it!
Pass it around, spread it on toast and otherwise enjoy!
New video, new (old) images!
Our new video from our show at MusicStar Norderstedt (1st March 2014) is online. Here’s a short message from Lee:
Hi Y’all
Here is the first of a series of live videos taken from our march 1st show at the MusicStar in lovely Norderstedt,
they will be the first live videos with the current dream line up… the videos are being edited by the famous Babylon Slim (aka Phillip Stillman) in his Tower of Babel compound located somewhere in the southeast united states…
We are especially fond of playing the “dis-assembly coda” at the end of the song and i hope yall enjoy it as much as we do every time we play it.
Warmest regards,
LeePS: the text was motivated by the 2008 presidential electionand the subsequent GOP meltdown and yen for a (continuation of this) new era of 1950′s style hypocrisy and denial…
Have a look:
Also, we’ve uploaded some new pictures to the gallery. There is a “fan snapshot” photo of Montanablue onstage opening for the German band BAP on one their 1980′s German stadium tours. Plus, there’s a cool picture taken in Athens Georgia back in 1981! It shows Lee with a 1965 Epiphone Wilshire, he had just bought from REM’s Peter Buck. For the gear geeks among you, there are also a couple of new pictures in the wood & wire section.
Lee in Norderstedt on 1st of March
1st of March, Lee will be playing at Musicstar Norderstedt. Here’s “Ashes” from the september show in Norderstedt, featuring the former line-up:

Happy new year!
We wish you – and us – a happy and successful year 2014! We’re welcoming the new year with a live video of Lee’s new (old) song “Home” – enjoy it!
In our Gallery you can find the first live pictures of the new line up from our Grüner Jäger performance on the 11.12.2013 - thanks to Susanne Hinck! The year begins quite promising: on the weekend, we’ll start recording the next album and on 1.3.2014 we’ll play – again – at Musicstar Norderstedt.
