Timeline
Floyd Lee died on June 7, 2020 at Mount Carmel East in Columbus, Ohio, of heart failure at the age of 86.
He was an actor and composer, known for Beck (2010), Full Moon Lightnin' (2008) and Below New York (2011).
In 2008, Lee was the main subject matter of a documentary film, Full Moon Lightnin' , where he reconnected with his family in Mississippi after 60 years apart. Full Moon Lightnin' was edited, directed and produced by John C. Gardiner, and released by Willow Tree Pictures. The film won the Living Blues Award in 2009 for Best Blues Documentary in Living Blues readers poll. The film and accompanying compilation album, The Amogla Sessions, saw Lee given assistance by guitarist and songwriter Joel Poluck.
Although best known for his passionate street performing in New York, in Lee's later years he recorded four albums in the 2000s on the Amogla Records label and toured extensively. He performed at music festivals in France, Switzerland, Japan, North Korea and Russia, in addition to touring across the US.
Lee also found employment as a doorman for 27 years at the Normandy Apartments on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, New York, before retiring from that job in 1996. He performed at David Dinkins' inauguration as Mayor of New York City in 1990 with Nelson Mandela in attendance. Some sources claimed Lee was a cousin of John Lee Hooker and, as well as Jimmy Reed, he also performed with Wilson Pickett and Bo Diddley.
In his teenage years, Lee began as a performer at rent parties. He once met and informally played guitar with Jimmy Reed; the latter having traveled to Cleveland to give a separate solo performance. Lee subsequently worked his way around the north back to Chicago; then Michigan; on to Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio; before eventually settling in Harlem, New York, in 1972. He became immersed in New York's musical culture and started to perform in the train stations, clubs and street festivals in the city. Lee was a founding member of Music Under New York (MUNY), formerly Arts for Transit, and was later a judge on their board. He regularly performed blues music at subway stations, including Times Square and Grand Central Station as an official MUNY musician, a role he undertook for almost 30 years.
Floyd Lee was born on August 20, 1933 in Lamar Mississippi, USA.
