LILLIAN AXE Guitarist Steve Blaze - "I Pretty Much Know The Good, The Bad And The Ugly Of The Music Business"
July 30, 2010, 14 years ago
Nola.com has issued the following report from Keith Spera, The Times-Picayune:
Against all odds, Steve Blaze still has an axe to grind. The guitarist and songwriter has led homegrown hard rock band LILLIAN AXE for nearly 30 years. Along the way, Lillian Axe has issued nine albums for six different record labels.
“I pretty much know the good, the bad and the ugly” of the music business, Blaze said recently.
Armed with that knowledge, the guitarist, his manager and an investor from Kansas have formed Love & War Records. The label is partnered with Megaforce Records and distributed nationally through Sony RED.
Love & War’s first release is Lillian Axe’s new, 10th CD, Deep Red Shadows, a collection of new material and older songs re-recorded with acoustic arrangements. To celebrate the release, Lillian Axe headlines the Howlin’ Wolf on Friday, July 30th.
