Cactus Lee
Cactus Lee is Texas music. It's Austin nightclub music. Dusty dancefloor cattle call music. It's rich and referential music, at times childlike and dreamy, all the while steered with wit not unlike John Prine or Tom T. Hall.The project is led by Kevin Dehan, a prolific Austin songwriter who draws inspiration from a wide range of Texas country artists, including outlaws and outsiders. Dehan's latest release, "Sister," marks the band's signing to Western Vinyl. Dehan describes "Sister" as "A feel-good song. It looks yellow and sky blue. It needed cow bell and bright guitars to match. You might listen to it and roll down the windows in your car."Since 2019, Cactus Lee has released six albums, including two in 2023, a live album, and two EPs. The project has always been a solo endeavor for Dehan, who has written and self-recorded his music on a four-track before assembling various lineups around Austin.In 2022, Dehan performed a solo acoustic set at a laundromat to test songs that would later appear on the Perfect Middle Hall EP.
