About Lluther
Lluther was formed in 2005 by Gerry “G” Owens, who was looking for a new direction in music following the break-up of the highly acclaimed Skindive, in which Gerry was the main songwriter and guitarist. Shortly after Lluther were formed they recorded and self-released their first EP “Venus Complex” and this led to them being quickly snapped up and signed to the German heavy rock label Tiefdruck Music. The album “Agents Of Empire” was released shortly afterwards in Europe on the Tiefdruck label. Working closely with the label they began to play all around Europe and got a tremendous crowd reaction. In early 2008, Lluther parted amicably with Tiefdruck. At this time, Gerry’s songwriting and composing abilities were recognised by international music giants EMI Publishing where he signed to a major worldwide deal. After being signed by EMI, Gerry went back into the studio to work on a new and more mainstream rock sound. He spent 2009 working and writing, putting the time in to get right the songs he knew were bubbling within his creativity.
The end result ”Rise Of The Reptile King” a brand new and truly unique studio album from Lluther. Besides being chock full of cracking rock tunes, lyrics and melodies, the new album sees the band pushing the boundaries of rock music, entering the world of circus performance, freak shows, the supernatural and the bizarre. Daring to be different, Lluther are not only planning the release of their album but are also currently working on the production and release of both the full length book and the graphic novel also entitled “Rise Of The Reptile King”, a fictional story based on the real life tragic events recalled in the journal recently discovered in Waldo.
Catch Lluther live at the Viper Room on April 16th, and at the Mezz in DTLA on April 20th, 27th, and May 5th.

About Kottonmouth Kings
Kottonmouth Kings are ready to celebrate this year’s annual 4-20 holiday with the release of their “Legalize It” EP, which will be released through digital retailers on April 20th, 2011. Embracing their passion and talent for creating music, Kottonmouth Kings have assembled an EP rich in musical diversity, as they flirt with a number of styles to showcase their true creative firepower.
“There are people that want to write Kottonmouth Kings off as a one dimensional weed band, but that is because it’s easy to put a label on what we do. Yes we love weed and champion the cause, but the levels and depths of our songs go a lot deeper than just that one dimension,” commented Brad X. “Anyone who can’t look past the weed references on our albums are completely missing out on some of our best material. We have a passion for music and that is why on a Kottonmouth Kings record you have punk-rock songs next to hip-hop, as well as mellow acoustic tracks or alt-rock. Yes we do write songs about weed and legalization, but we also write about life, love, politics and the beauty our planet.”
The “Legalize It” EP embraces the hypnotic, positive vibrations of Kottonmouth Kings’ sound. “Rise Above” rallies the group’s army of fans to soar above those that would hold you back with a powerful funk hook, while the breezy flowing rhythms and positive vibrations of “My Garden” are simply contagious. The reggae flavored protest track “Soon Come” feels like the group is channeling the ghost of Bob Marley while challenging the listeners to question the war on drugs, and “Defy Gravity” closes the EP with the group flexing their melodic prowess over the top of an irresistible acoustic hook.
The group will also launch a newly updated website for www.KottonmouthKings.com on April 20th, to coincide with the release. The “Legalize It” digital EP is being served as an appetizer for Kottonmouth Kings upcoming full-length studio album “The Sunrise Sessions”, which is set for a July 19th release through Suburban Noize Records.
Catch the Kottonmouth Kings live on tour in CA and NV on April 17th thru 23rd.
