Glitzy Glow Bio:
The Glam Metal musician, Johnny Roxxy, earlier a member in the Glam Rock bands Plastic Dolls and Angelina Diamonds, gets his inspiration from the 80's Heavy Metal and Hair Metal bands such as Kiss, Mötley Crue, Tigertailz and W.A.S.P. Johnny Roxxy's Glam Rock band Angelina Diamonds dissolved and that gave him more time to write 80's Heavy Metal songs. In the spring 2004, together with Julia, a Glam Girl with roots in the Glam Rock artist David Bowie and the ever experimental Kate Bush, Johnny Roxxy started to create tunes very much related to their own favourits. One of their previous songs is a very special and sensitive kind of acoustic Hard Rock Ballad called Dragonfly and it was played on local radio stations. A half year later the Glam Metal duo had achieved thirteen songs .
The Sleaze Metal couple began to search after eager and talented Hard Rock musicians with the right attitude. The first musician that joined Johnny and Julia was the solo guitarist Geoff Lawrence from Sidney, Australia. In Geoff's guitar playing you can find influences from true guitar heroes like Steve Vai, Jeff Beck and Zakk Wylde.
The next musician that came along with the the Glam Rock band were the Glam Metal drummer Daniel Jackzin that played with Johnny Roxxy in both of the Glam Rock acts Plastic Dolls and Angelina Diamonds. Daniel is a musician of many talents, he handles a row different instruments as guitar, piano, bass and cello. This has meant a great deal for the Glam Band when it comes to variety in sound. Daniel Jackzin's influences as a drummer are many, but the 80's Hair Metal drummer Tommy Lee in Mötley Crue is one of the leading stars. Most recently the guitarist Zack Wylde and the Heavy Metal band Black Label Society have made a great impact on Jackzin.
The band tested different bass players and ended up with Carl Thunberg, that became the last successful piece that was needed to make the Hair Metal band complete. Carl Thunberg has been influenced by Sleaze Metal acts as Gun's N Roses, 80's Heavy Metal bands like Manowar, Motley Crue, W.A.S.P., and the guitar hero Zack Wylde in Black Label Society. |
