LuciD - No Fly Zone by Rock U Fest 2012 published on 2012-06-17T21:29:38Z Biography LuciD began in April of 2010 as a solo artist, Kyle Colson. Quickly realizing he was missing something, he ran across Jake Bollinger, a guitar player from the same area. They got together for one practice in Kyle’s mom’s basement and agreed something was still missing. Kyle ran into Landon Wells through mutual friends on a trip to see the Deftones. Kyle told Landon about him and Jake’s ideas and he started working on some new beats for LuciD. Landon reached out to Chris Tilley (hazoh), who had producing experience. One thing led to another and the name LuciD transformed from one person into a band. LuciD really honed in on the grunge hop sound they were trying to find within themselves during a five-day session with Phil Taylor (Future Leaders of the World) and John LeCompt (Evanescence and We Are the Fallen) at Red Room Studios in Bentonville, AR. The album On The Record is comprised of everything from defining a “Rad Bro” to views on the state of the world and includes some personal heartbreak that the lead singer has dealt with. No song is alike on the album, and the band hopes to spark some independent thinking from its listeners. Due to artistic differences, Landon departed the band in Nov. 2011, the same night the band had a show. Chris (hazoh), being with the band for so long and knowing the music better than anyone, stepped in to DJ. At the end of that night’s set, he was asked to be a permanent fixture in the band as the new DJ. There was no delay in progress—the band was practicing the very next week. The next show they played together was the most electrifying and energetic show that LuciD has ever performed. They continue to mix up genre’s performing with some of Springfield’s elite hip hop artists and rock bands. They are very happy to see the revitalization of the Springfield music scene both on local and national levels. The new album On The Record was released February 4th, 2012 at the Outland Ballroom in Springfield, MO. LuciD makes music that is considered rap/rock most made famous by Limp Bizkit in the 90’s. Most people roll their eyes at this genre because of its predecessors but LuciD hopes to help bring back intelligence and purpose to that genre. 2012 is looking to be a great year for the trio with many events and upcoming shows they will be performing at.
