Lost Weekend have been together for 15 years. They are made up of musicians who over the last 25 years have rocked the stages of Britain, Europe and the world. With the resurgence in guitar based music the band have been in huge demand, indeed they have performed along side the likes of Gotthard, TNT, Dokken, Magnum, Saxon, Wishbone Ash, Jeff Scott Soto and Winger etc, in fact the list reads like a who's who of rock.
It was around the release of their third opus "New Religion" that legendary Magnum vocalist Bob Catley invited the band to support him on his solo tour of Britain and Europe for which the band again impressed from the start, this resulted in the band being asked to write Bob Catley's next solo album Spirit Of Man.
The album as received worldwide critical acclaim, and again the band was invited to tour with Catley. In November 2006 the band released their fourth album, the acclaimed Forever Moving On. The band spent 2007 promoting the latest album with appearances at some of England's premier rock festivals to great effect.
With a slight change in personnel the band are now a twin guitar based band resulting in a heavier sound more akin to the likes of the Scorpions, UFO and Thunder to name a few. If you have not seen this band live with there current line-up you have not seen this band at all. With four albums on sale around the world and band on the eve of the best release to date with their new album on Escape titled "Fear and Innocence" the band goes from strength to strength.
