( view the Barry Leech slideshow )WHAT IS BLUEBEARDBluebeard was originally formed by Barry Leech, Vincent Bitetti, Vincent Thomas-Penny, Gayle Hart and Danny Bogan. In January of 2004 Barry Leech took his own life and from that tragedy, the remaining four original members decided that the music should live on - not in spirit - but in reality.Producer Barry Fasman was recruited for keyboards and Ellington Erin (from San Gabriel Valley's Siddhartha) for frontman and lead vocal duties. We even enlisted long-time friend and associate, Gene "Doc" Snyder to write some poignant lyrics for a few new songs. Recently, Brian Barnum joined the band to replace Vincent Thomas-Penny. Brian is also part of the band's history, having played in the Robert Barry Leech band in the early 1990's.Our music has been described as hard rock, pomp rock (Europe) and classic rock. In essence, we play Original Classic Rock - the music has a late '70's vibe but also has many '80's, '90's and contemporary rock textures and influences.Below are images from our original line up:
Praise:
"You may think you are traveling back in time with this one. Well in a way you are. But it's the bands sound. It's what it was in the '70's and is what it is now. So you will hear that classic rock vibe from those early days that has 'shifted many melodies from then to today and is rich with contemporary textures.'"So check out their latest timeless classic. It is a great listen. You can hear in their material how they have inspired so many over the years. And the new material sounds just as new as it does 'classic'."
