RONNIE LEE WILLIAMS the bandleader sings lead/harmony vocals, plays keyboards and guitar.  His parents were so disappointed when he was born - they were expecting a child.  After many treatments and procedures Ronnie Lee finally started looking like a normal lad.  Growing up in a small town located on the New Jersey side of the the Hudson River, he would sit on the steep cliffs behind Palisades Park and sing along with his favorite tunes playing on the radio.  As he grew into his teens his dad bought him an accordion.  Ronnie Lee learned how to play that accordion and used to sneak over to Coney Island in New York City where he would perform outside of the famous Nathan's for all the hot dogs and cokes he could consume.  As he matured, he performed with various "oldies" bands. Throughout the years, he would open for  the national acts like Jay & The Americans, The Shirelles, The Grass Roots and The Fifth Dimension, just to name a few. In 1979, Ronnie Lee gave up his dream of rock and roll to take a job in the great city of Cincinnati.  After sitting around every weekend for 17 years in his old band shirts, Ronnie Lee couldn't stay away from performing anymore. So, he put together The AMERICAN GRAFFITI BAND - and the group has been delivering those great oldies sounds since 1995.
