About Mickey Lee Lane

Mickey was born on February 2nd He attended (at a vey young age) the famed Eastman School of Music in Rochester New York (he actually received a scholarship in cello there!) where he was born (Lou Gramm of Foreigner and Ersel Hickey, a friend of Mickeys are also from there). He is a mulit-instrumentalist, his main instruments being electric guitar (in the Bo Didley fashion), bass and keyboards. He also plays saxaphone, harmonica (he has some really far out harmonicas) and tambourine. Actually, if it can make a musical sound, HE WILL PLAY IT. I remember him filling up glasses of water to different heights so that he could get different notes out of them! He has played with The Four Seasons, was Neil Sedaka's piano player for a while, played in the Chants and the BellNotes, among others. His songs have been covered by The Music Explosion, Bobby Bloom, Bill Haley, Solomon Burke, the Purple Wizards, the Action (produced by George Martin) and Ronnie Spector, to name a few. Many of Mickey's songs were co-written with his brother Bernie, a musician and songwriter in his own rite. Mickey engineered in a number of studios and ended up as Kama Sutra's chief engineer around the time when the Critters and the Lemon Pipers (he edited and played on the album) were popular. Mickey is thank G-d still musically active in the NYC area.
