Lee McBee (born March 23, 1951, Kansas City, Missouri) is an American blues
musician, singer and harmonica player.
Though he is primarily a regional blues act in the midwest, McBee gained national
attention in the late 1980s and early 1990s for his work with Mike Morgan and the
Crawl and for his band the Passions. These bands toured the United States, Canada
and Europe and recorded on major blues labels. McBee grew up in Kansas City and
collected blues and soul records throughout the 1960s. In 1969, he moved to lawrence,
Kansas and worked in many blues and blues-rock bands, including Tide and Lynch-
McBee Band, up to 1978.
From 1978 to 1982 McBee moved to Chicago, Dallas and Los Angeles and recorded and
performed with Bonnie Raitt, Jimmy Rogers, Doug Sahm and Johnny Winter. By the
mid 1980s, he settled in Dallas and met guitarist Mike Morgan in 1985. They formed
the Crawl and they would be together for the next twelve years. In 1994, McBee began
a side project with The Passions. This band would be relocated to Kansas City as its
base and soon evolved into Lee McBee and the Confessors. Throughout the 2000s,
McBee and his band tour northeast Kansas and northwest Missouri and have released
two albums.
