Drummer Brandon Lee Lewis has performed internationally with artists
such as Gil Coggins, Harry Whitaker, Frank Wess, George Mraz, Kenny
Garrett, Myron Walden, Azar Lawrence, Lezlie Harrison, Saul Rubin, Avi
Rothbard, Anthony Wonsey, David Weiss, Billy Harper, Reggie Workman and
Charles Tolliver, among others. He's also performed on Award-Winning
Broadway productions The Color Purple and Memphis and the feature film American Gangster.
In addition to impeccable sideman work, he hosts a weekly Sunday
night jam session, inherited from the great Harry Whitaker. Sundays
have evolved into a community hang where Brandon's developed a band
sound as a vehicle for his compositions, an offering known as the Program of Deprogramming,
which features longstanding bandmates Lawrence Clark, Stacy Dillard,
Theo Hill and Renée Cruz, in addition to a bevy of special guests.
This
band gets to the root of expression while honoring, and extending the
legacy of their art. They don't care about current formalities or
titles. The music is up-front and center, performed by a close knit
ensemble. It is a journey into the fire of life.
