There's something to be said for having conviction and dedication
for your art in a business that is so watered down that it has become a
shallow shell of it's former self. LoNero is one of those rare bands
that strays away from trends and the beaten path. They are four
musicians that got together to create a new genre of instrumental rock.
Guitarist Bill Lonero, drummer Steve Spicer, bassist Mike McKaigg and
guitarist William Baglivio created Guitarcore, a genre all their own.
So infectious that even those that don't listen to rock find themselves
headbanging and foot tapping to their unique brand of Instrumental
Guitarcore.

LoNero's debut cd "Relentless" (released 2007 with
a month long promotion from Apple Computers) is 14 tracks of punishing
rhythms, beautiful acoustic and infectious melodies. Built on the
principal that the song should always come first, "Relentless" proves
that you can still be instrumental and gain a wide and varied fan base
without having to follow what others have already done.

Unlike
most instrumental artists LoNero is a band in the truest sense of the
word. Everyone contributes to the unique sound that is LoNero. But
LoNero is not just a band that records in the studio album after album.
They are a dynamic group that performs live every chance they get.

Currently,
the band plans an extensive tour and with endorsements/sponsorships
from products such as Peavey, Hot Picks, Seymour Duncan, Dunlop, Rebel
Straps and Lava Cables the band plans on "playing 'til we drop" says
Bill Lonero. "I've had the privilege of playing or recording with the
likes of Cliff Williams (AC/DC), Simon Kirke (Bad Company), Stu Hamm
(Joe Satriani), Gigi Gonaway (Mariah Carey), Mike Mangini (Extreme and
Steve Vai) and Polo Jones (Zucchero and Whitney Houston) so I
understand what hard work is and am prepared to do what it takes to
build our fan base. We love playing live because we can connect with
our fans."
