After receiving strong reviews from their appearances the two decided to form a group. Not long after, Lee joined the after meeting the two in a roadshow and convinced them to let him join their group. He landed the lead vocals for 911.
911 officially formed in 1995 and released 5 consecutive hits including the their number 1 rendition of Dr. Hook's A Little Bit More. They became extremely popular in Asia and as a result, their album The Journey topped the charts and stayed there for more than 4 months.
The band split up by February 2000 but a year after, 911 reformed for a short reunion tour before starting their own career. Lee concentrated in writing songs and started his own family, marrying Lindsay Armaou of Irish act, B*Witched.
