The Australian-born singer-songwriter Ben Lee has been on a lifelong spiritual quest. He was raised at a Modern Orthodox Jewish school, studied Taoism, and was married in a Hindu ceremony. Now he’s released an album called “Ben Lee Sings About Islam For The Whole Family.” The songs are sunny and uplifting, and draw from Islamic folk tales, Sufi poetry and the Koran. With this album, Lee, who is married to actress Ione Skye, is taking “a stand for love.” |
