Lizzy Borden (band)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lizzy Borden was an American heavy metal band with a "glam" image formed in 1984. Lizzy Borden is also the name of the band's lead vocalist. Borden specialized in the shock metal style originated by artists like Alice Cooper and Twisted Sister. The band is named after notorious Lizzie Borden, a woman accused (and acquitted) of murder in the late 19th century.
One time Lizzy Borden guitarist Joe Holmes also played with David Lee Roth and Ozzy Osbourne, and bass guitarist Marten Andersson has enjoyed stints with Lynch Mob and Legacy.
The band experienced considerable success throughout the 1980s in spite of several line-up changes. Lizzy Borden would re-form in 2004 under a new name, Starwood.
The band recently announced that they have reformed with Guitar Player Ira Black and are in the process of recording a new Lizzy Borden CD, and a worldwide tour scheduled for 2007.
