(PR) Dot Dash are pleased to announce the U.S. digital release of Lee Memorial's debut album, The Lives Of Lee Memorial on July 21st. Karl Smith is half of the ex-Rough Trade signings, Sodastream and the album has already received overwhelming praise in the band's homeland of Australia

Smith's previous outfit, Sodastream released 4 albums, 5 EPs and a live recording between 1999 and 2006. They toured Europe 7 times, as well as the US and Japan and cult Radio 1 DJ, John Peel once described them as, "Quite wonderful".

Lee Memorial's members include Laura MacFarlane, one time drummer with Sleater-Kinney and founder of Melbourne outfit Ninety Nine, Tom Lyngcoln from Nation Blue (lead guitar), Madeline Spawton who has no ragged pedigree - which in many ways is a good thing - plays clarinet and cello, and Matt Bailey (ex-Paradise Motel) on bass.
