Lionel Neykov

Hey everybody, my name is Lionel Neykov. I’m an indie musician based in NYC, trying to spread the word about my music here on myspace.
I picked up a guitar about 7 years ago and I haven't put it down ever since. Pretty soon I was writing songs and starting to record them myself.
These past 18 months I've been working on my first album "Songs of Want and Loss" and now I'm releasing it myself, using the internet to try and promote it.
Please, check out a few songs, there's a couple of videos too, and let me know what you think!
If you like what you hear you can pick up a copy of the CD right here:

For those who prefer downloads, the entire album (including Freeze My Senses) is available on itunes everywhere:

And for those who are keeping tabs, "Freeze My Senses" has now over 450,000 hits on youtube, and counting! Sometimes I have to pinch myself... Check it out:

Here’s what you really need to know about me:
I was born in August during a heat wave. As a result, I developed a rash on my face, which was unfortunate, since a lot of pictures were taken that day.
I swallowed a bee once, it bit my tongue which started to swell alarmingly. I had to go to the emergency room. I couldn’t talk for three days after that…
When I was twelve I accidentally touched a girl’s breast. She blushed, I blushed. We never spoke to each other again.
I bought my first guitar at the tender age of 21. I used to sleep with it too, until someone pointed out that was awkward.
Praise for ‘Songs of Want and Loss’:
“Of course I knew it would be excellent. He was a very musical baby, you know, made the loveliest babbling sounds…” Catherine Neykov
“Who gave you this number? This is my home phone, OK? Stop calling me here, or I’ll have you arrested!” Anthony DeCurtis – Rolling Stone magazine
“Man, that shit is heavy!” Glen Collins – UPS
Seriously though, if you like what you hear, please talk about it around you. Word of mouth is so important…
