Leo Lyons
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Leo Lyons (born David Williams Lyons, 30 November 1943, in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, England) was the bassist of the British late 1960s to 70s rock group Ten Years After.
He first played with lead guitarist Alvin Lee in The Jaybirds. In 1967 there was a name change to Ten Years After. With this group, Lyons played at major rock festivals including Woodstock in 1969 and the Isle of White Festival on 29 August 1970. Ten Years After disbanded in 1976, although they later reformed without Lyons being involved.
In 1975, he was hired as a studio manager by Chrysalis Records to re-equip and run Wessex Studios in London. He then produced UFO from 1974 to 1976. Later he started two commercial recording studios himself.
Lyons now plays purely in a pub band.
