Soul Maitre D's

When two seasoned singer/songwriters like Henry Lees and Lawrie Ingles combine efforts, the results are bound to be as tasty and satisfying as your favourite old mixtape or new playlist.

Toronto born and raised, Lawrie is one busy musician – singing, playing guitar, keys or bass in any number of bands at a time, including Elton Rohn, David Storey, Mix Webster, As Waters and The William K-Tell Orchestra. When he’s not playing, Lawrie’s out supporting live music, taking in more live shows than anyone we know. He’s also a talented songwriter and his wordplay-laden lyrics offer a trusting glimpse into his emotional and intellectual depth.

Originally a westerner, Henry fronted Calgary's popular original pop/rock band The Household Saints for a decade. Henry also performed nationwide with actor, musician and Order of Canada honouree Tom Jackson on his Huron Carole benefit concert tours, sharing stages with exceptional and lauded talents like Shannon Gaye, Kristian Alexandrov, Natalie McMaster, The Rankins, Melanie Doane and Charlie Major. 

Now calling Toronto home, Henry has dived head first into crafting and performing acoustic pop packed with heart and soul - writing, recording and performing with Lawrie and other notable GTA artists such as Evelynne Ross, David Storey, Sue and Dwight, Chris Antonik and The Prince Brothers.

They singularly shine on their own, but together, Lawrie Ingles and Henry Lees are uniquely and brilliantly entertaining as The Soul Maître D's.

We might not be your soul mates but, we wanna be your Soul Maître D's
