Bio:
The Band LIONCAGE was founded in 2013 by Thorsten Bertermann (Vocals), Torsten Landsberger (Drums) and Lars König (Guitar). We met at a Festival at the Loreley that was headlined by Toto and Whitesnake.After some (better a lot) Beer we were talking about our favourite Bands and we decided to do our own thing.Our musical influences are Bands like Toto, Journey, Foreigner etc.All three of us were playing in different Cover-Bands for several years as professionals. We enyoid it, but it was time for our own music. So we began writing songs...and it works great!We are not living at the same place, so we use the Internet, to send the audio-files to each other and Lars mixes and produces it.We think the Album is brilliant. There are all our Influences, but also the typical Lioncage-Style!Hope you will enjoy it!We´re looking forward to get your feedback.
Album:
All three musicians had been known each other for many years performing in professional tribute bands, and impulsively started a band with original songs after having a couple of beers at a rock festival. After two years of songwriting and recording demos, Lioncage's debut release, "Done At Last“, successfully saw the light of day in Europe and Japan. Even though the three have a big variety of individual musical influences, they have one passion in common: melodic rock and rock bands such as Toto, Foreigner, Journey, Huey Lewis, Genesis, Yes, Paul Carrack, Chicago and many more. Besides these influences, Lioncage’s sound also showcases a contemporary own sound on their second album “The Second Strike”, which will be presented with even more finesse, power and versatility. Some fantastic, talented musicians and friends helped the German three-piece to complete their new record. The bass guitar was handled by Lars Slowak, Sven Zimmermann, Andreas Laude-Schwedewsky and Dirk Meyer, keyboards by Mitch Knauer and Shanger Ohl, and backing vocals by Madeleine Lang, Anja Bublitz, Olaf Senkbeil and Billy King. Last but not least, one of the finest studio guitarists, Tim Pierce (Bruce Springsteen, Michael Jackson, Rascal Flatts, Joe Cocker, Rick Springfield, Elton John) took over some guitar parts on the track “Secrets”. On “The Second Strike”, Lioncage impressively prove that Germany is able to offer great productions in the westcoast, AOR and melodic rock genres.
