Rock Steady,
Hollywood California 1985:
Bursting onto the Southern California metal scene in the 1980's Lynzee hit the Hollywood strip performing at many of the legendary strip clubs and regional nightclubs throughout California. Lynzee offered up a serious serving of In Your Face Arena Rock, progressive grooves with Metal and Rock roots influenced by the masters; The Scorpions, Motley Crue, Judas Priest, Whitesnake, KISS, Dokken, Y&T, Ozzy, Iron Maiden, Hurricane, Alcatrazz and Van Halen to name a few. Lynzee had Metal to spare and more. Lynzee played with many of the Big bands and Hollywood Strip headliners from the Decade of Decadence and was a staple of the Hollywood Strip scene. Melodic Metal, Meaningful lyrics, Ripping guitar, catchy riffs, soaring guitar solos, MONSTER musicians and Classic Kick Ass Rock n Roll... and then, the band broke-up after 7 years of hard work and determination. But this was just a part of life and so Richard wrote songs of life (working with friends quietly) and compiled them until it was time to begin anew. Then in 2009 Lynzee signed a deal and re-released 3 albums through Retrospect Records in 2010, including 4 new recordings of classic songs, bringing drummer Bill Hartel back into the fold. Welcome to 2023, Bill has moved on to expand his jazz horizons and Richard continues to create and produce new and diverse music. Fortune would smile again and Lynzee is proud to welcome new member New York Guitarist Art Kalenda to the family as of Fall 2023. Richard & Art have began a new series of recordings known as the "LYNZEE: Art Sessions" & are unleashing the new single "Mortal" from the 1st Volume of Lynzee-Art tunes in development. It has Just Begun... and it ain't gonna be pretty.
Rock Steady,
Lynzee
