Bio
From the ragged undergrowth of Birmingham's bustling creative quarter (general Moseley-way) some musical troubadours emerged from the mists of Moseley, Balsall Heath, Cotteridge and even far-flung and exotic places such as Knowle and Walsall. They gathered together under the cloak of numberous guises (Los Crocodilos) and thrashed out their musical passions in an ever-changing kaleidoscope of musical styles - the end product a jewel-encrusted hybrid that makes a mockery of any genre label you might choose to throw at it. The 'evolution' years saw indeed much thrashing, a fair bit of crashing (of cymbals) and the gigs were smashing. And like a musical embodiment of the hokey-cokey, each beat saw members come in, then out, then back in again, until by hook or by crook, the beast was tamed. 8 became 4. Snap-Happy Croc became Sprawling Lounge Lizard and many happy gigs, albums, festivals and music videos ensued. Aaaah the Glory Years... Tragically - and somewhat selfishly - Head Honcho James Conder (bearer of songs and lead vocals) ran away to Vietnam in October 2009,putting The Lazy Lizards 'on sabbatical' until further notice. Needless to say the consequences have been grave - leaving fans suspended indefinitely in the musical stratosphere and causing other band members to subject themselves to less gratifying musical collaborations (shudder) in a feeble attempt to fill the reptilian void. However, rumour has it that the elusive Mr Conder will once again be darkening our shores in 2011... leading to much well-founded speculation that after some serious ass-kicking and Take That-style psycho-analysis, The Lazy Lizards will unite once more in a bittersweet homecoming gig so that all throughout the land the people may revel in the glorious tunes of yesteryear (c.2007-2009) And then who knows what the next chapter will hold...
