Ducy Lee Recordings
Welcome to the wonderful world of DUCY LEE RECORDINGS.
My name is WAYNE MOORE. I founded this company in order to record the songs of the NEW writers of music for the theater and for cabaret ... the Gershwins, Porters and Berlins of today. As a songwriter myself, I am privileged to know many of these new talents. There is a great wealth of wonderful new material being written ... but unless you're lucky enough to be in the little nightclub or small theater the night someone sings one of these gems, you'll never hear it.
I want to correct that.
I've spent many years writing and recording for other people. Now - with my own little company! - I can indulge my passion for this thrilling new music and work with some of the finest writers and performers in the world. If you love theater music as much as I do, welcome!
"DUCY LEE" ("doo-see lee") was the name of my grandfather's sailboat. Charles Overholtzer and his wife Viola - a great bass singer and his accompanist - were my first and finest musical inspirations. This company is dedicated to them.
