As a child, Aaron was involved in a near fatal car accident which required facial reconstruction surgery[1]. After starting her career in glam metal music, at 16 she joined a rock group named Lee Aaron in Brampton, Ontario. Aaron eventually kept the name and formed her new band. With that band when she released her first long play in 1982. John Albani, a guitar player in her band, helped her write the vast majority of the songs. "Buzz" Shearman , Bill Wade, Terry Juric, and Earl Johnson all former members of the Canadian rock band Moxy would all appear on her debut album called The Lee Aaron Project released in 1982. She then began touring in Europe - in England and Germany. In late 1983 she recorded her second album titled Metal Queen which was released in 1984. In 1984 as a promotional stunt, Aaron posed nude for American adult magazine OUI, which failed to make an impact on her album sales or her career[2][3][4].She toured Europe regularly during the 1980s, where most of her early success was found. By 1990, she was considered a leading Canadian rock singer with the help of her 1989 Bodyrock album with sales of more than 200 000 units.[5]
In 1996, Aaron joined with three former members of the band Sons of Freedom in the one-off band 2preciious.
Lee and her husband John are the parents of two children. Their first, is a girl named Angella born June 7, 2004 and the latest addition to their family - Jett Forrester Cody - born January 7, 2006.
Also recently Lee Aaron has reissued most of her albums on CD through Unidisc Music Inc.
