Down the Lees
2005 – Present
A veteran of the Vancouver music scene, Laura Lee (LL) Schultz gained a plethora of experience playing in bands such as NEW YEARS RESOLUTION, the SKINJOBS and QUEAZY. Having a career that sparked in the early ‘90s gave LL the opportunity to play with bands such as Xui Xui, Propagandhi, Sleater Kinney, Pansy Division, Minus the Bear and The Rose Chronicles. Being involved with and having 4 full length albums under her belt, LL welcomes the extra notch with Down the Lees’ The Guest Room.
“Laura Lee Schultz is the main engine that powers Down The Lees, a band I got to know thanks to CD Baby and Soma.FM. Caustic, sincere and cutting like a knife, this is the way she delivers her music. Add to that a bit of DIY and you got a class act that keeps evolving.”
- Sloucher
“…if a gal wants to rock out and sound pretty genuine about it, more
power to her. Go forth and conquer.”
- Chart Attack
The Guest Room was engineered and produced by LL in her home studio, Off White House Studios. Drums and additional bits here and there were recorded by Shawn Penner (Hot Hot Heat, Mother Mother) and boasts performances from members of Portico, Wintermitts and New Years Resolution. Songs roam from full on rock out epics ‘The Lullaby’ to acoustic ditties about love ‘On a Lie’ to poppy regretful friendships in ‘Talk is Not Cheap’.
