Lee Aaron

Lee Aaron (born Karen Lynn Greening on July 21, 1962, in Belleville, Ontario) is a Canadian rock and jazz singer. She had several hits in the 1980s and early 1990s such as "Metal Queen", "Whatcha Do to My Body", and "Sex with Love".

Background

Lee Aaron began singing in school musicals at the age of five.[1] She was discovered singing in a music production when she was fifteen years old, and was asked to join a local rock group called "Lee Aaron" while still in high school in Brampton, Ontario.[1] Aaron sang, played alto saxophone and keyboards in this first incarnation of the band.[1]

At age seventeen, Aaron's face was badly bruised and her nose broken in a car accident.[1] No surgery was required, but years later, in a profile on Aaron, Canadian Musician Magazine mistakenly embellished the incident into Aaron requiring complete facial reconstruction.[2][3] The magazine printed a retraction in the following month's issue.[4]

That same year, she signed with her first manager, Bob Connolly.[1] Aaron was removed from playing any instruments and pulled centre stage to front the band.
