Singer/LML Music Founder, Lee Lessack, Releases "Chanteur," August 9 on LML Music

Los Angeles (PRWEB) August 03, 2011

Award-winning recording artist Lee Lessack will release his seventh CD this summer, celebrating treasures from the French Songbook. The recording, titled "Chanteur", includes music from Michel Legrand, Jacques Brel, Charles Aznavour, Gilbert B?caud and more. "Chanteur" is Lessack?s first studio recording since his critically lauded duets album, "In Good Company", was released in 2005. Chanteur will be released in stores nationwide and online August 9, 2011 via LML Music/Allegro. It is available now in pre-order from Amazon.com.


The repertoire, which Lessack sings in mostly English and some French, takes the listener from the streets of Paris to the Broadway stage, with influences and inspirations from Sinatra to Leonard Cohen. A concert version of "Chanteur" was conceived and directed by Tony Award? nominee Brian Lane Green and premiered last summer with performances in London and Paris. Lessack's longtime collaborator, pianist/arranger John Boswell leads a trio in support on the disc.


Lessack?s graceful lyric baritone and a sophisticated yet endearing persona make him a very popular concert artist on the international scene. He has previously released four solo CDs and three with other artists, including "In Good Company", a very popular duets CD with a bounty of performances with music notables including Michael Feinstein, Maureen McGovern, Amanda McBroom, Ann Hampton Callaway and Stephen Schwartz. "In Good Company" received wide critical acclaim and earned both a MAC and a Bistro Award for Best Recording of the Year. His other releases include a live recording of his 2001 concert tour ? "Too Marvelous For Words: The Songs of Johnny Mercer" ? recorded at the famed Cinegrill in Los Angeles ? was chosen for the preliminary ballot for 2002 Grammy Awards?; Mr. Lessack?s self-titled debut solo album; the GLAMA Award?-winning, "I Know You By Heart"; the cast recording of "An Enchanted Evening: The Music of Broadway", and a live recording of his critically acclaimed vocal trio, "3 Men and a Baby?Grand Salute The Rat Pack".


Billboard Magazine described Lessack's music as ?Cabaret romanticism of a high order.?


In 1996 Lessack founded LML Music (http://www.LMLmusic.com) to distribute his own recordings. The LML catalog of CDs now includes over 100 of the country?s top live recording artists and performers. LML will release six new recordings on August 9, including "Chanteur" and other buzz-worthy CDs including Jim Van Slyke's "The Sedaka Sessions" (including two duets from Neil) and "Consider it Swung" from Tom Wopat.
