Local guitar god/indie-pop pappaw Tim Lee sent along this little gem from a recent show at The Earl in Atlanta — a cover of Neil Young’s classic “Cortez the Killer,” featuring Tim trading vocals and licks (the six-string kind) with Amy Ray of the Indigo Girls. Pretty sweet stuff.

In other news, Tim tells me that Matt Honkonen, formerly of the recently deceased Tenderhooks, is now the full-time drummer for the Tim Lee 3, having replaced Rodney Cash. Matt, Tim and bass badass Susan Bauer Lee (Tim’s lovely wife), in addition to the Three, are also the new backing band for former Tenderhooks guitarist/vocalist Jake Winstrom. Crazy-busy time for the Lees, obviously. Tim and Susan have demoed some new songs and hope to work up some new TL3 tracks soon, he writes.

In the meantime, you can check them out — as the TL3 and backing Winstrom — along with the Kevin Abernathy Band on New Year’s Eve at Patrick Sullivan’s Saloon in Knoxville’s Old City. Admission is $7, we think.
