I wrote this song for a cabaret style show called 'Home Sweet Home'.  The theme was what home meant to us. I performed for it at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts last June. It was a three night performance and I was accompanied by Jesse Waldman and Meghan Engel. 
I decided towards the end of the recording project to do a recording of this one, and add it to the CD. Its all about moving, and transition and coming home.

"What Would It Be Like" won the UKSC POP category 2009.......This was the very first song that I wrote and composed myself.....(This track is now Published by Leopard Music) ........"What Would It Be Like" won the UKSC POP category 2009........ The vocalist that I used in this track was Jo Norfolk, who was in Suzi Quatro's Tour band.....Jo did an amazing job of interpreting my track exactly as I wished! .This track is now signed to Leopard music. The demons in my head relate to being psychic but not wanting to be.........but a few years down the line......it really doesn't bother me now! But I do still ask most of the demons to go away :) 

Also  one of my other songs " Autumn Truth"   which I wrote with a songwriting friend Michaela Gillian Jay is now with  Leopard Music Publishing.

I am currently working on more tracks and also instrumentals for film and TV.  

We also have been doing an internet radio show for the last ten years- we are now on NorthernQuarterRadio.Co.Uk- The Mer & Mikki Show ....playing new signed and unsigned singer songwriters and sometimes we get guest visits in the studio on the show from The BaaBaa Band :)

Vancouver-based singer-songwriter Monica Lee uses her powerful voice, sense of humour and poetic chops to warm our hearts as well as to share her pain. That’s never been more evident than on her latest album, Farewell (Release date July 24, 2020), containing 10 tracks that chronicle a tumultuous past decade in her life.

From bad break-ups to finding a soul mate, starting a family while at the same time losing loved ones, the songs on Farewell span the breadth of human experience but ultimately celebrate our ability to survive. All of that is reflected in Farewell’s seamless blend of country, blues and jazz, co-produced by Jesse Waldman at Vancouver’s Redlight Sound.

The late John Mann of Spirit of the West once compared Monica Lee to Joni Mitchell and it’s easy to agree after hearing her ability to balance confessional subject matter with vivid observations of everyday life. Farewell is a statement both beautiful and soul stirring, a testament to following one’s muse, as well as Lee’s undeniable, natural talent.

no cred i just want to listen to these songs myself
