Myles and Lenny were a Canadian folk-pop music group based in Toronto who were most active during the 1970s.

History

Myles and Lenny was formed in 1969 by its principal members, guitarist Myles Cohen and pianist/violinist Lenny Solomon. By 1972, they had been signed to GRT Records.[1] They released a single, "Time to Know Your Friends".[2] The group transferred to Columbia Records in 1974, and appeared on several television programs while continuing to perform live in small venues.[3] The band released a self-titled record in 1975;[4] the album included the Canadian Top 20 single "Can You Give it All to Me".[5]

At the 1976 Juno Awards, the group won in the category of Most Promising Group.[6] However, disappointing sales of their second album led to the group's demise in the mid-1970s. Cohen and Solomon since released various separate music projects.[7]
