From Wiki: Lee Aaron (born Karen Lynn Greening on July 21, 1962, in Belleville, Ontario) is a Canadian rock and jazz singer. She had several hits with titles such as "Metal Queen", "Whatcha Do to My Body", and "Sex with Love". According to her official website, and despite rumours to the contrary, Lee will continue to perform selections from her full catalogue as well as doing 'jazz-only' shows on occasion. Lee Aaron began singing in school musicals at the age of five.[1] She was discovered singing in a music production when she was fifteen years old, and was asked to join a local rock group called "Lee Aaron" while still in high school in Brampton Ontario.[1] Aaron sang, played alto saxophone and keyboards in this first incarnation of the band.[1] At age seventeen, Aaron's face was badly bruised and her nose broken when she was in a car accident.[1] No surgery was required, but years later, in a profile on Aaron, Canadian Musician Magazine mistakenly embellished the incident into Aaron requiring complete facial reconstruction.[2][3] The magazine printed a retraction in the following month's issue.[4] That same year, she signed with her first manager, Bob Connolly.[1] Aaron was removed from playing any instruments and pulled centrestage to front the band. Connolly quickly fired her high school band, hired professional musicians and began moulding the young Aaron into a pin-up girl. Aaron's debut 1982 album The Lee Aaron Project on Freedom Records (later reissued on Attic) featured a who's who of the Toronto music scene, with members of Moxy, Santers and Triumph's Rik Emmett.[1] The album, available in England only as an import, created a groundswell of interest that resulted in Aaron's appearance that year at the prestigious Reading Festival.[1] In a late 1982 publicity stunt orchestrated by Connolly, Aaron flew to New York and posed topless for the men's magazine OUI.[1][3][5][6] Connolly assured Aaron and her family that the shoot would be "classy", like Nastassja Kinski's recent pictorial with Richard Avedon, and that Aaron would get final approval over the photographs, none of which happened.[1] The March 1983 issue featured Aaron on the cover and in an embarrassing interview where the naïve artist appears blindsided by the sexually provocative questions. While Aaron defended the decision initially, the stunt temporarily damaged her musical credibility and she deeply regretted the decision later on.[7] 1984's recording of the album Metal Queen resulted in a multi-album deal with Attic Records and catapulted Aaron to icon status in the hard rock world.[1] During the recording of Metal Queen, guitarist John Albani joined the band and he and Aaron formed a solid songwriting partnership that would last eleven years. Aaron walked out on her management deal with Connolly the following year. Between 1984 and 1992, Aaron toured almost non-stop, including over twenty European tours and appearances in Japan and the US. She released six albums on Attic Records in Canada, as well as international releases in the UK, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, The Benelux, Italy, Scandinavia, Australia and Japan. She has won three Toronto Music Awards for Best Female Vocalist, eight Juno nominations,[8] and topped dozens of European music polls. Her greatest success came with the release of Bodyrock in 1989. The album spawned several hit songs, including "Whatcha Do to My Body", and went double platinum in Canada alone.[1][9] In 1992, Aaron left Attic Records to start her own label, Hip Chic Music,[1] and released two more albums. On 1994's Emotional Rain (distributed by A & M Canada) Aaron worked with Don Short and Don Binns (Sons of Freedom), Reeves Gabrels (David Bowie's Tin Machine), and Knox Chandler (The Psychedelic Furs).[1] 1995's 2preciious was a project record written with members of Sons of Freedom. It was critically acclaimed but commercially unsuccessful,[1] as she tried to drop the name "Lee Aaron" entirely and use her real name, Karen. In 1997, she began exploring jazz and blues, her first love.[1] In 2000 she released Slick Chick, again on her own imprint, Barking Dog Music (with distribution by Fusion 3). Aaron played extensively for this release, showcasing at The Top of the Senator in Toronto and numerous jazz festivals across Canada and Europe. In 2002, Aaron was approached to audition with the Modern Baroque Opera Company. She was cast and appeared that year in an ALCAN Performing Arts Award-winning production called 101 Songs for the Marquis De Sade.[1] Her eleventh album, Beautiful Things, a pop-jazz hybrid, was released in 2004. Aaron and husband John Cody have two children: Angella,[10] born June 7, 2004 and Jett,[10] born January 7, 2006. Lee Aaron continues to play both rock and selected jazz shows.[11] The Lee Aaron Project 1982 The Lee Aaron Project is an album by Lee Aaron, released on November 13, 1982 (see 1982 in music). After joining the band Lee Aaron in 1979, Karen Lynn Greening eventually adopted the band's name as hers, moving from background vocals to lead. Her debut album recorded in Toronto features Rik Emmett from Triumph and Buzz Shearman from Moxy also backing musicians from Canadian group Santers. Released in Canada in 1982 and subsequently distributed overseas in 1984. The video for the single "Under Your Spell" garnered controversy due to its explicit nature and was subsequently withdrawn. The album was digitally remastered with a bonus track "Under the Stars" in 2004, recorded live at The El Mocambo, Toronto. Tracks: 1. "Under Your Spell" (Aaron/Aplin/Stout) – 3:36 2.
