About Me


Feel free to post the banner on your page. Thanks for your support.
Leman King started playing music when he was a kid, his dad played piano and he picked up coffee cans and played them with pencils and he was hooked. Leman is a double amputee/drummer. Gabe Hostetler plays guitar. He came into the picture in January 2007 bringing a host of new ideas, a wealth of new grooves and has been a stead fast member of TGL ever since. Steven Tucker, who has been a good friend of Lemans for quite some time as well as a founding member and co-conspirator of "Punkry", recently joined and added a whole new level of sound to the mix. Steven has been playing for some fourteen years and was lead guitarist and vocalist for a great band for several years called Phydeaux. Kenny Lawrence brought up the end of the search for musicians, as he has filled the final spot for bass player. Kenny started playing bass when he was 15 years old, he played around in several bands over the years never really making it out of the garage. He got his start as a frontman for the local comedy group Porno for Penguins, but his passion has always been bass playing, "I'm a natural groove player, so playing with Steven and Leman has led me to new heights as a musician," "and i thank them both every time I get a chance for allowing me to be a part of this". Our style has been described as groove with grunge undertones. Influences range from Alice in Chains to Santana, with a little Jimi thrown in for good measure.
"The best way to describe what we do is, take things that were never made to be together and arrange them in such a way as to make them work." Leman King
