From their website:Gregory Lee Caropresi, known to many as Lee-Bob, is easily the most talked about of the group, though he's not quite as dumb as he looks. Coaxing a variety of tones out of his Fender "Hot Rod" amp, Lee's raw lyrics and subtle yet straight-forward guitar work guide The Touch's primal approach to their music. As lead vocalist, his distinctive voice and ear for melody put a recognizable face on the band's sound.
He has been known to make a few good decisions in life, like marrying his sweetheart, Patsy, and not flipping off the big gorilla with the .50 caliber Desert Eagle who just cut him off in traffic. He has also proven to be a decent enough guy to his daughter Annie and stepson Dylan. Citing influences like Led Zep, Skynyrd, Tori Amos, The Beatles, and Keith Partridge; Lee has managed to sound almost, but not quite entrirely, unlike any of them. After listening to one of his many professional recording sessions, Lee has been known to comment, "hey, this guy's good!"
