Brian Lee and His Orchestra Vol 1- Album Review




One word expresses my thoughts and feelings for this album, WOW!!! This is hands down the best album that I have heard all year. It is very rare that an album can come along and literally bring tears to my eyes. Brian Lee has the ability to draw you into his music and literally feel his emotion. Lyrically, Brian Lee is amazing and sings songs about life, waking up, the otherside, God, and to top it off, all this is sung behind the eerie sounds of the south blended with twangy lap steel guitars, southern church organs, choir synths, heavy toned/twangy distortion, and harmonies of hymns and blue grass.

I rate this album a perfect 5/5!!! This album has my stamp of approval. The awesome thing is is that the album is free!!! Keeping it free like it should be! I believe in free music, but I also believe in supporting artists whether it's financially or morally.

heres a preview of his lyrics for the "help me to hold on"

oh i ache i ache
oh i burn i burn
for the owner of this heart to return
you've been gone so long and i feel my strength is done
but i know you watching me watching me from over the hill


help me to hold on help me to hold on help me to hold on to you and i will

oh my hearts grown hard but i feel you still inside
would you bring me back to when i was a child
when they see your face every man will bow then sing
it doesn't matter how they feel about you now
