Lucky Lew was formed in 2006 in Bergen, Norway. Guitarist Barillion, bass player Svein Knutsen and then drummer Whezz had played together in a previous band, and now found a new project in Lucky Lew when singer Villa:K joined the boys. The new band released their self-produced first album Hello Miss Devine in September of 2006.
The band released their followup album Beauty In Aggression on Sept 6, 2010. The album was recorded at RadioStar Studios in Weed, California and produced by Sylvia Massy. The album represents the next step in the band's evolution, and will showcase a more focused selection of songs and a pure rock & roll image. With material ranging from the aggressiveness and energy of tunes like Riot to the glassy and mellow sounds of No. 3, this album will feature Lucky Lew at their very best.
Lucky Lew is fearless, demanding and generous, presenting rock as it should be presented: with a smoking attitude and an all-consuming energy! Raw and unfiltered; They will give you all they’ve got, and more! Villa:K aims her flirty ”f%&k-you”-attitude towards both the audience and the band, and leaves no-one listening unmoved. The music reaches straight to your heart, your rock soul, your tapping foot and that moving body of yours!
The Press simply concludes:
“Absolutely Fantastic! You’ve GOTTA see this!”
Inspiration arrives from wherever you'd turn the compass. The band is a melting pot and reveals that the members have been inspired by all genres from KISS and Faith No More to French singer/songwriters and British rap, all wrapped in by a voice described by the audience as Tori Amos meets Kate Bush meets David Bowie... Gorgeous!
The Press has described Lucky Lew as "Gorgeous, dramatic and progressive rock". You
CAN NOT and
WILL NOT miss out on this!
