Prince meets Lenny Kravitz is probably the best way to describe the sound of T Lyles latest cd Lyfe, Luv & Sex.  He’s managed to mash together Hip Hop, Rap, Rock and old style R&B in a way that really works.  This is by far T’s best cd yet.  His vocals have so much energy and feel, it’s like he’s standing right in front of you.  From old gospel sounding songs like Beautiful Day to the club pumping Pardy, you’ll find something to like in every song.

I have toured with T as his guitar player on and off for the last few years and it is always entertaining.  He performs with an energy that even surpasses his cd.  I think some days being in the band watching him perform is just as entertaining as being in the audience.  We never know what to expect from show to show.  We always have to pay close attention to where he’s going and what’s coming next.  That and with him being 6’8″ I have to watch that his long arms don’t accidentally bap me in the side of the head while he actively entertains the crowd on stage.

These are a couple of my favorite songs from Whoosh, a band I used to play with. That’s me with the crazy hair in the middle. I always enjoyed playing in this band. These 2 guys on either side of me are great to work with and very talented. You can find more songs at www.myspace.com/whooshmusic Whoosh is not currently working on new material. Myron Wegner, Trevor Tarhos and I have embarked on a new project. I will be posting info and clips of that when it’s all ready for show and tell.
