BIO:
Lenny Revell's musical roots started in Buffalo, NY where at the age of nine (9), he started piano lessons. Only seven (7) years later, he wrote his first song, and at nineteen (19), began singing lessons. While playing various piano recitals in nursing homes, churches, and institutions in the WNY area, his love for audience grew. In his late teens, he played at the Lewiston Art Fest in Western New York and at the Canal Fest of the Tonawandas (NY); where he returned for other performances. During these performances, he was brandished as the "next Elton John." Many cities followed, with a concert in Branson, MO, a TV appearance in Nashville, TN, and opening for a model show in Toronto, Canada. Lenny's become a familiar face at the most popular piano bars and clubs on the NYC circuit, including "Don't Tell Mama," "Rosa's Turn," "George Keeley's," "Duplex," and many more.
Having acted in two (2) operas within the Greater Buffalo Opera Company under world renowned opera director Gary Burgess: Carmen and The Flying Dutchman, and modeled for Rova in NYC, Lenny released his Debut Album 'Lessons' in September 2006, preparing for his move to The Big Apple.
Lenny's cd: 'Lessons' has been reviewed in Keyboard Magazine with great interest, and his song "Who Am I?" was played throughout Regal, Lowes, and AMC theatres across the country through the Month of May 2007, in celebration of Spider-Man 3. His track, "Love Is Just Her Fix" was chosen as the theme song for independant actress and filmaker Angie Gregory's indie-short "Gone Like Solomon." Traveling frequently between his basecamp in NYC and Buffalo, he's won 1st place in Buffalo's own "Spy Guy Talent Show," run by Rick Rhodes and Norm Skulski.
Aside from his musical accomplishments, Lenny is also into nutrition, alternative medicine, eastern philosophy, and a certified instructor in Bruce Lee's art of Jeet Kune Do under Sifu Shane Dixon.
