With a catalogue that ranges from James Brown-style funk to lo-fi blues to contemporary Southern soul to collaborations with French house DJ/producer Martin Solveig, Lee Fields has done it all. Since the late sixties, the North Carolina native has amassed a prolific catalog of albums and has toured and played with such legends as Kool and the Gang, Sammy Gordon and the Hip-Huggers, O.V Wright, Darrell Banks, and Little Royal. With a career spanning 43 years, releases on twelve different record labels, and having toured the world over with his raucous-yet-tender voice, it’s mind-blowing that the music he’s making today with Brooklyn’s own Truth & Soul Records is the best of his career.

A superb performer, Lee Fields will return to Portland for one show only at The Aladdin Theatre, 3017 SE Milwaukie, on Monday, September 16th. Show time is 8:00 pm. Tickets are available through www.ticketfly.com and are $20.00 advance and $25.00 at the door day of show. Minors are permitted with a parent or legal guardian.
