LUCID FLY
To be honest it takes a strong woman to win me over either by singing presence or her personality. In the world of rock they have come and gone and I'm thinking the boys are going to own it once again in this business. That was until I came across Nikki Layne, the front woman for Florida based LUCID FLY.The three songs on the disc drive with raw emotion, dark edgy arrangements and vocals that purely send off a rough exterior with some mesmerizing melodic tones that range from high to low in mere minutes. BLIND is my favorite, its rough, its soaring with intricate guitar solos and like I said powerful, flexible vocals. COLLIDE has more endearing qualities with its light emotion through the verses and then makes you flustered with a solid rock chorus. CENTER OF YOUR SPACE ends the disc. This song combines both elements of the prior songs into one. LUCID FLY reigns with a rock edgy feel and a female vocalist that gives girls the power back in rock n roll.

Lucid Fly - Demo
Reviewed by: Jenny Stepp (www.sonicrampage.com)


Starting a garage band is something that many people do, but few truly excel at. Lucid Fly is a rock band that does just that. They are a shining jewel, fighting for recognition in an enormous musical pool dominated by male lead singers.

Lucid Fly formed in Orlando, FL in early 1999. Their current demo is presently riding near perfect ratings on www.garageband.com. A catchy and distinctive name, along with a dynamic female lead singer helps set this group apart from the pack.

"Blind" draws you in with a quiet introduction, gaining volume as it adds a few simple guitar notes. An occasional bass drum thump hints at the explosion of music that awaits. When the full force of the music impacts, the collaboration of instruments is set to the perfect head bobbing pace, with an addictive drumbeat that seduces you. If it hasn't hooked you yet, then the deal is sealed in the next thirty seconds when you hear lead singer Nikki Layne's flawless, and yes, lucid voice. Superb vocals, infectious percussion, and an electrifying guitar solo make this song so balanced that it's nearly impossible to determine what aspect you like best. "Blind" is four minutes of solid enjoyment and my personal favorite of the three songs on this demo.

The other two tracks are as equally strong. "Center Of Your Space" has an unforgettable bass line and flaunts Layne's ability to glide into different intonations effortlessly. "Collide" shifts the pace down a notch, bringing out a melodic acoustic guitar for each verse, but then smoothly transitioning to a powerful emotion driven chorus. You'll not only appreciate the sheer vocal beauty, but also the amazing interaction among the group and how they are each fundamental to creating the overall breathtaking results.
