Lees was born in Ashton-under-Lyne, Greater Manchester. Fellow Twisted Wheel rocker Jonny Brown was originally in a band called 'The Children' with Rick; however, the band failed and the two school friends decided to form another band called Twisted Wheel. After meeting at Leeds Festival one year, the band was completed as they found their drummer Adam Clarke. In January Twisted Wheel were signed by Columbia Records which led to them supporting Kasabian, Oasis and Paul Weller during 2008 and 2009. In the summer of 2010, it was announced on Twisted Wheel's Facebook page that Lees had left the band. In 2012 he formed Howling Rhythm with younger brother Max, a music agency, and signed bands 'The Gramotones' and "The Wax Collection" to it. Alongside managing the band, Howling Rhythm clubnights are now a common sight in Manchester, playing 60s / 70s soul, motown and funk. In 2013 the clubnight hosted the aftershow party for legendary motown outfit .Martha Reeves & The Vandellas.〔http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/whats-on/music/twisted-venue-perfect-setting-motown-5686152〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rick Lees」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
