Musician/songwriter Born in England, grew up in N.Y. and now live in Florida. ENJOY!
Hans Boos RIP 1966-2019 I moved songs my brother Hans and I wrote to a separate song page. I will be adding more. If anyone wants to hear a cool vocalist, killer drummer and bass player go visit assortedpeople. Thanks. Lee Boos Project I am a 63 year old musician/songwriter, collectively writing progressive, alternative, soft and southern rock songs for at least 45 years. Between my Brother Hans and I we have written close to 300 songs. Hans recently passed away but he seems to show up in the form of some of the drum and bass styles that I have written into my latest songs. Thanks Hans, I miss you. RIP. Besides music, I am an avid golfer holding a 3 hdc. I work in the pro shop at Coral Oaks golf club in Cape Coral, Florida. I am currently semi- retired. Whoever visits, I hope you will enjoy my music. Here is a little more background. I dropped out of music for a bit in order to re group and become inspired by life and family. But let the truth be known, my Brother Hans has been the driving force in my rekindling the flame and fire in my belly. We went about 2 to 3 years without any means to record songs until recently. Hans built a new home studio. As I sampled his music the fire grew in me and I too, put together another home studio. I have gone the DAW, digital audio workstation, interface and midi. Hans had continued with a 32 track digital console up until he passed away. Both studios seemed to produce beautiful music. More about Lee and Hans P.S. my brother Hans wrote this upcoming part of the Bio back in 2006 when we joined soundclick. He was a funny guy and always acted like the younger brother that he was. so I'm not going to edit this much! Lee Sommers(Name de la stage)has been playing guitar since right about when they invented it... We think he played the first "rock" guitar - in that it was built out of stone. Hans Von Bous(name de la bullshitta es la staga)Has been playing several instruments for many years. For years they have played music together and have written hundreds of songs. They would sometimes be the entertainment at family get togethers, etc... Lee being the elder brother had musical experience first and was an inspiration to his younger brother, Hans. Lee played in a band called Mountain Ash and jammed guitar at home sometimes, playing the acoustic and singing John Denver and such. Hans joined in with harmonies and started playing drums on a banjo skin. Later the kit grew to paint cans, bass drums, snares, and other household percussion objects. Lee's guitar playing talent progressed along with the piano and Hans picked up other instruments along the way, Bass and drums Later on became quit the guitarist as well. They both put together what they could eventually both contributing renditions of several instruments, voicings, styles, etc... Favorite spot? N.Y.C. however they live in sw. Florida now. 1997-2019 SoundClick Inc.

Lyrics
Working the System By Lee Boos I've been running wild, feeling alive Breaking rules, making my own drive I won't back down, no, I won't comply I'll take the leap, I'll take the ride **Chorus** I'm getting ahead, I'm taking control I'm breaking free, I'm reaching my goal I'm on the rise, I won't apologize Working the system, I'm gonna thrive Dodging bullets, left and right Making it out, into the light Working the system, a step at a time I won't give in, I won't lose my pride **Chorus** I'm getting ahead, I'm taking control I'm breaking free, I'm reaching my goal I'm on the rise, I won't apologize Working the system, I'm gonna thrive Lead **Chorus** I'm getting ahead, I'm taking control I'm breaking free, I'm reaching my goal I'm on the rise, I won't apologize Working the system, I'm gonna thrive Misunderstood, for taking control But I won't let it bring me down, Above the system, I'll take the crown I'll make my mark, I'll wear it proud **Chorus** I'm getting ahead, I'm taking control I'm breaking free, I'm reaching my goal I'm on the rise, I won't apologize Working the system, I'm gonna thrive
