Lee Coulter
Today 12:00 pm ET
Hear an encore of Lee Coulter playing selections from his self-titled debut album! Raised in Australia, Lee grew up influenced by his parents’ taste in music, with The Beatles and Michael Jackson playing around the house, and was particularly inspired by Simon and Garfunkel. Lee decided in high school to start audio recording for other artists, teaching himself how to program on his computer with virtually no experience. A few years later, he began to write and perform his own songs, playing a number of shows around the country, primarily near his home in Southern California. Lee says his ultimate goals in music are simple: to make people feel good, and to impress his wife. (20 min) > Rebroadcast: Tomorrow 12:00 am ET

Rather than accepting rejection, Colbie went on to write songs that became popular overnight -- and since then, has earned her several Grammy awards for her work with artists like Jason Mraz and Taylor Swift, as well as being nominated for her 2009 solo album, Breakthrough. Since then, she has been performing all over the world, including the National Anthem at the World Series and most recently won the 2011 BMI Songwriter of the Year award! (20 min)
