Musician Information
For more than years, Lee Allen has provided music services as a 'solo jazz trio', thanks to music

technology and extensive preparation. Although only a single person (like most of us), Lee provides the

realistic sound of a three- to five-piece jazz/pop ensemble. Lee pre-plays the bass parts and composes the

drum parts from scratch according to his original arrangements (for those of you into music technology, no

'loops' or stock MIDI clips are used). For Lee, the technology is at its best when it is invisible and

simply providing a great listening experience.


Lee's musical approach to arranging is to deliver familiar melodies seen a new way, while preserving the

message and spirit of the original song.



Lee has used his technique at restaurants, receptions, corporate parties and private parties -- for example,

Lee performed jazz-trio music at Ray's Ristorante in Atlanta's Lenox Square for eighteen months with

excellent response from the owners and customers, and during August Lee began his third consecutive year

of regular appearances at Faz Restaurant in Sunnyvale, California.

What Lee Allen's customers are saying:


"It was lovely to hear Lee's fine talent on our piano. He provided wonderful light background jazz for our

dinner party. Much appreciated."

-MD, / / , Private Party, San Rafael, CA



"I was extremely pleased with Lee Allen's performance at our company Winter Party. His background music was

perfect for our event and I couldn't have asked for anything more. He also accomodated a request for a hand

microphone for our door prize give away without blinking an eye. Thank you, Lee!!"

-DE, / / , Corporate Function, San Jose, CA



"Mr. Lee Allen is a true professional. My Christmas Party was a wonderful success! Everyone of my guests

truly enjoyed the musical talents of Mr. Allen. I would recommend him to any of my friends. Thank you very

much."

-LR, / / , Private Party, San Francisco, CA



"We were very pleased with Mr. Allen. He arrived early, was well prepared, and entertained our guests for

five hours on a very warm day. The Foothill Club was air-conditioned, but the stage, where he performed using

the club's Steinway piano, was still quite warm. We received many compliments on his performance, and several

people said he was "a real trooper", since they knew he kept playing even though at times it was

uncomfortably warm on stage. If the occasion arises, we will certainly ask him to entertain for us

again."

-FT, / / , Anniversary, Saratoga, CA



"Fantastic! I was planning an event from across the country, and Lee was so helpful with everything. His

performance was wonderful, and I had people coming up to me throughout the night telling me how much they

were enjoying his music. I highly recommend Lee to anyone, and hope that one day in the future I may be able

to work with him again!"

-KS, / / , Convention, San Francisco, CA



"He was great!"


-JA, / / , Private Party, Hayward, CA



"Excellent"

-EW, / / , Corporate Function, Sacramento, CA



"Lee was on time, had everything set up and ready to go and did a great job of entertaining our guests. We

were very pleased with his services and his professional courtesies".

-SB, / / , Corporate Function, Sunnyvale, CA



"(Lee) Allen is a wonderful entertainer. His music was very relaxing and mellow at our vineyard blessing. He

was great to work with. I would definitely hire him again."

-CR, / / , Vineyard Blessing, Morgan Hill, CA







Lee is currently performing on Monday, Thursday and Friday nights at Faz Restaurant, part of the Sheraton

Sunnyvale Hotel.

music, such as receptions and dinners.
