Robin Lee (Bruce)

Robin Lee Irwin (born November 7, 1963 in Nashville, Tennessee) is an American country music artist, known professionally as Robin Lee or Robin Lee Bruce. After several years on an independent label, Lee broke through on the country music scene in 1990 with her cover of Alannah Myles' Number One pop single "Black Velvet". Overall, Lee has recorded four studio albums, in addition to charting fourteen singles on the U.S. Billboard country charts.
Lee's musical interests began in high school, when she would perform at school dances and talent competitions. She later recorded demo tapes for local publishing companies, and by 1982, she made her debut on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks charts with "Turning Back the Covers (Don't Turn Back the Time)". She charted several more singles throughout the 1980s, with her cover of Alannah Myles' "Black Velvet" peaking at #12 in 1990. Lee has since signed as a songwriter to Chrysalis Music, and has written album cuts for LeAnn Rimes and Jo Dee Messina, as well as singles for Lila McCann ("With You"), Tracy Lawrence ("Lonely"), The Clark Family Experience ("Standin' Still"), Katrina Elam ("No End in Sight"), and Crystal Shawanda ("My Roots Are Showing"). Lee also married Trey Bruce, (son of country singer Ed Bruce) another country songwriter, in the late 1990s, and has co-written several songs with him.
