Bio: Since 2009 this symbolic story through music has been known as The Oldest Child. Evolving in the talent rich Peterborough and the Kawarthas, solo musician and self-proclaimed axe swinging lumberjack, Lee Appleby, writes and composes all original guitar based folk music. The music is sourced from everyday life, unexplainable phenomenon, constant self discovery and of all things; emotion. Appleby's emotionally driven songwriting; with its deep acoustic melodies and lyrics, tell a story about growth, failure, turmoil, persistence, success and the forest; to which he calls his home.
