Amos Lee broke onto the music scene in 2005 with his intimate guitar and piano filled debut album and on the strength of his success shared the stage with such legendary artists as Bob Dylan, Paul Simon and John Prine. Supply and Demand is Lee's second studio album, one that illuminates his growth from emerging singer-songwriter to established recording artist. By retracing his roots and teaming up with producer Barrie Maguire, Philadelphia-native Lee took his multifarious writing style one notch up with dynamic arrangements and a well-suited sonic palate.

From the sparse, powerful, family elegy “Long Line of Pain,” to the country/R&B flavored title track, Supply and Demand is rich with big league songwriting, compelling musicianship and captivating vocals. On the pleading, “Careless,” which was written during recording sessions in Philadelphia, the band stands side by side with Lee through this scathing personal tale of lost love and friendship. What makes this album such a satisfying listen is its balance. There are stark, introspective moments, poignant moments of narration, and streams of light that lift the listener just as the darkness begins to settle. “Sweet Pea,” which is a swingin' little number, features Lee on vocals, guitar, 'vocorgan,' and drums. The soul-stirring “Skipping Stone,” features a gorgeous, churchy Hammond B3, setting the stage for one of Lee's strongest vocal performances. Bound together by 11 well crafted songs, Lee, Maguire, and the musicians involved, create an album that not only displays Lee's growth as a recording artist, but also a splendid atmosphere for these songs to come to life.
