Lance Elias Project

About Me

Lance has played in local and signed bands all of his life such as: The Have-Nots (New York), Stranger Danger (L.A.), The Love Vultures (Cleveland), Shadow Gallery (London), The Skyboys (Boston), Carwash Kid (Waltham, Mass.), Daddy We're Down (New Jersey), The Zit Remedy (Degrassi, CAN), Wasabi Luv (Japan), Middle Child (Atlanta), Ficklebitch (Belgium) and has recorded and toured with many artists including Red Bulb Records' Samantha James on her "Forgiveness" tour. Lance also played on Ron Nasty's "Out Of Me Head" and Danger Danger's "Screw It" among others and was frequently seen at the beach with Drake Bell, Lindsey Lohan, The Jonas Bros. and Mandy Moore. Lance says, "All good people, a lot of fun."
A 19 year-old left footed guitarist with no fixed ability, Lance broke away after the Samantha James tour to record a series of demos after a very public break-up with Olesya Rulin of High School Musical fame. These songs were later described by controversal web site INTENSE INTERVIEWS.COM as "shorter than Jesus, but taller than Dio". These demos disappeared but were later found locked in "the vault".
Far from home, Lance settled in Atlanta, GA where he was tracked down and notified of the demo discovery. He was then signed to Red Bulb Records by VP Chris Brander and the demos will be released on a new EP entitled "Shave & A Haircut".
A world tour sponsored by S-MART (Shop Smart, Shop S-Mart!) and ROCKBOX promotions is planned following a press junket in Japan, Canada, Mexico, Europe and possibly South America. A show is tentatively in the works for Nickelodeon and The Disney Channel. Lance doesn't have a girlfriend but says he likes his girls "short, sweet, and very smart. It's important that they stay in school." His favorite color is blue and he sleeps with socks on.
MySpace Codes
