Somebody named "Marti Frederiksen."

Although when the scenes were performed, Lee was lip-synching to Ann Wilson.

For an additional FYI, Mike McCready of Pearl Jam played guitar for the movie.

I've never heard of "Marti Frederiksen" though. Not sure where he's from.

He should definitely make an album. He rocks.

imdb.com has him listed as singing a song called "Angel's Eye" from the first Charlie's Angels.

I thought I read somewhere that McCready was responsible for the vocals as well.

He didn't do the lead vocals. He may have done some back up vocals, but I'd still be surprised as I don't think I've ever seen him sing at all for Pearl Jam. I've only seen Jeff and Stone do back up vocals for PJ.
