NOTIZIE PRINCIPALI
Lorenguard formed in 2004 by aspiring fantasy author and drummer Brady Sadler and his twin brother, co-writer, and bassist Adam Sadler. The twins were incapable of finding their nitch in music, and metal, until they had discovered the epic power of European melodic metal from the source of such bands as Rhapsody, Freedom Call, Heavenly, Kamelot, Fairyland, ect. After studying the craft of power metal, the twins had decided they were destined to wielders of the true metal torch. The brothers sent out a call to arms and, with the help of former guitarist Chris Cruz, they were able to muster veteran metal guitarist TJ Hunt and the keyboard magic of David Russell. From their the band sealed their foundation and began work on the songs that would make up their debut EP release "Of Tales to Come".
But the band still need vocals. After long and grueling searches on metal chat rooms, forums and classifieds, word came from, not one, but two vocalists only miles from the Sadlers' hometown of Lafayette, IN. Raleigh Barrett found a post Brady had left in Kamelot's forum and replied immediately. Raleigh had a voice for narrations and deep operatic singing, but lacked the range needed for a frontman. Enter Rob Stith. Rob auditioned for the band and slayed them in turn. With vocals in tot, Lorenguard set out on to spread their tales of honor, glory and all that is fantasy to crowd after satisfied crowd. The band writes its music to tell the tales of the heroes who they portray, and the story of Lorenguard will reveal itself as the band continues to live out the adventure in a world all their own.
