Richard Lee Wendel: Home

My goal is to share the joys of healing through music. To have you join us in a higher state of consciousness so we can change the mindset of the world.

Only my love for music is greater than my love for science. Ever since I was a child I always wanted to know everything there is to know about everything.

I will never stop learning and I know I know very little. What I do know is that we and everything around us is vibrating. If we can understand the relationship between how we vibrate and how music can balance that vibration we can use the vibration of music to heal the world.

Richard has toured with Milo Z, Grant Green Jr, The Masters of Groove with Bernard "Pretty" Purdie and Reuben Wilson And is currntly touring with Latin Hall of Famer " Pucho and his Latin Soul Brothers " and will Be at Iridium for 4 nights February 26th- March 1st

Since November 2008 I've had the pleasure of hosting "Richard Lee and Friends" at Corio 337 West Broadway and Grand every Monday night. We have created a new type of Jam. The music is called "NEW YORK VIBE" and the scene is growing I am honored to have the best musicians and bandleaders come down and participate every Monday.

In March of 2009 we expanded our "NEW YORK VIBE" JAM to ONE 83 Restaurant (1608 1St Ave. 83rd n 1st) It's a 5 star Restaurant featuring northern Italian cuisine. We play every Tuesday from 7:30 - 10:30. Lots of great musicians have been coming to the upper eastside to play with us as well.

This Is what Benjamin K Harrison had to say after playing the Corio Jam on Monday 1/19/09

"Rich, you guys are killling it! Anytime you need me, I will be there. Your drummer, Adam, is solid as a fuck, and Jeff was awesome. You play wonderfully, chops and melody. Nicky, well that was the cherry on the top of the cake. Anytime, please call....was my honor to have shared the stage with you". Benny

What Niki Buzz Said:

"Yo man it was great to see Benny again and to work with world class musicians such as yourself.
