Lee Pankhurst - guitarist
07918 620749 • leepankhurstguitar@gmail.com
I am a solo musician who performs relaxing guitar music, adding a soothing ambience to all sorts of social events.

My repertoire is made up of popular songs from the 1950s through to the present day, with a focus on much-loved classics of the 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s.

I regularly perform in care homes, where the familiar melodies often spark memories and bring a sense of connection and joy to residents. I also play at weddings, funerals and parties - and occasionally at restaurants close to where I live in Southend.

For the past ten years I have worked as a volunteer at Southend Hospital and regularly perform in those wards that specialise in care for the elderly. I find it hugely enjoyable to see the positive impact that my guitar music can have on the wellbeing and mood of the patients.

Our resident guitarist, Lee, visits each month and serenades everyone over lunch, which has been a real favourite of residents and staff. It is so relaxing listening to his acoustic guitar.

Lee came to Langley Lodge and performed for our residents. It went down really well and the they all had a lovely time singing along. I will definitely be rebooking.

Lee's performance of classic songs delighted the residents, sparking fond memories and engaging everyone. This prompted staff to book him for Christmas after seeing how calm and joyful the residents remained all afternoon.

I would happily recommend Lee to other care homes looking for a reliable, engaging and genuinely caring live musician. He brings a great deal of joy to our residents.

Lee's guitar playing was calming and soothing which was conducive to a relaxed lunch time. Residents were humming along or singing to well loved songs. Everyone enjoyed the experience.

I needed a peaceful background vibe to my dad's 80th party and Lee was the ideal choice. He played some lovely music - all tunes that everybody knew and most importantly my dad loved it!

I first saw Lee playing guitar at Southend Hospital when I was visiting my grandad in Hockley Ward. My wife booked him for a private event we later held and he was great.
