Biography:

    Hi, I'm John Lazz. I'm a progressive metal guitarist and songwriter with a lighter, acoustic side that shows itself quite a bit, which makes for an interesting mix of styles and influences. This comes out in the music I write in an engaging way that leaves the listener wanting to hear more, and wondering what's next. I've honed my songwriting skills over many years of stage experience and guitar playing, from Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, to Los Angeles, California, then for a time in El Paso, Texas, and then back to Wilkes-Barre, where I currently call home.

    All throughout the long journey, the music in my head has been shaped by new experiences and life itself, and it is time to release that music into the world. The August 1st, 2024 release from this collection, the single "Thunder", is the first song in a musical journey that began a long time ago, from punk rock roots, through 80s guitar chops, and then sharpened with progressive metal polishing. Its also been my pleasure to play and record with some of the best musicians I've known, and to share the stage with many of them as well. From the upcoming singles being released to the full album dropping later this year, and to the next album and beyond, I'm sure that everyone can enjoy at least a piece of what's to come.

    Until next time... - john lazz
