Lionize Featured in Jan 2010 Issue of MCLA The Lax Mag

Posted in Lionize News

JAN_10Lionize is featured in the January 2010 issue of MCLA The Lax Mag. Odd to be in a sports magazine, but the magazine’s top guys are music fans and Nate happened to play a little lacrosse back in the day.

excerpt from the interview:

AO: First time I met you, it was probably about a year ago, you were wearing a lacrosse T-shirt and being from Baltimore, MD area, does that make you a player at some point in your life?

NB: Yeah. I played my junior and senior of high school and then one year post high school. But I played year ‘round in the regular season and indoor and outdoor in the off-season.

For more information on MCLA The Lax Mag check our their website.

A time lapse video was made of the creation of the January 2010 cover and “Mummies Wrapped in Money” is featured as the background music.


Happy New Year

Posted in Lionize News
We’d like to wish everyone a happy new year. lionize_studioLionize had an incredible time in 2009 playing with some of our favorite bands and going to a ton of new places. After a a great november with Lee Scratch Perry and a rad ass NYE Tour with Clutch in December, we are now back in the studio finishing up our new album with Producer J.Robbins at the Magpie Cage in Baltimore, MD. We are pleased to announce that we will be doing our first ever remixed-dub tune with our friend Chali 2na (Jurrasic 5/Ozomatli) at the hip-hop helm of the track. There will be some more guests on the record, but we will announce those when the time is right. We are also going to be doing some really great shows in the coming winter/spring months including a stop at the SXSW Festival in Austin, TX. Stay tuned for more news on that as well. Along with the announcements of upcoming tours and festival stops, we will be revealing news on tons of new live footage and audio featuring old songs and the newest ones from our upcoming release. Thanks again for the continued support, and be on the look out for more news about the new record and new tour dates coming up very soon.
