Twice Removed
Twice Removed presents itself as a rock and roll band but it is so much more. drawing on classic
influences this group lays down some fiery exchanges and delivers a solid performance. The
production has potential, but it falls a little short. but don't let that take you away from the solid music and
songwriting. I'm hearing AC/DC, BUCK CHERRY, LED ZEPPELIN. These iconic bands are blended
together and squeezed into Twice Removed's soundscape. The vocal production and harmonies are
sonically superior to most bands out there today. The quality of thought process that goes into this level of
songwriting craft turns this band into a landscape of musical artwork. I enjoyed listening to this band.
I can imagine
that this is a barn burning live act. All in all, this is a band that we highly recommend, and you need to
keep any eye out for. If you get the chance to see them live it is highly recommended.
8/10 Wolf Howls.

CASSANDRA'S CROSSING Featuring George Lynch
"Garden of Earthly Delights" marks the thrilling debut of Casandra's Crossing, a collaboration that bridges rock's past and future. Guitar maestro George Lynch's iconic style melds seamlessly with Casandra Carson's dynamic vocals, crafting an album that respects rock traditions while pushing boundaries. From the sci-fi-infused "Stranger" to the powerful "Closer to Heaven," this record crafts a musical narrative that promises to resonate across generations of rock fans.  |
This new musical alliance between guitar legend George Lynch and powerhouse singer Casandra Carson is poised to set the rock 'n' roll world on fire! The project's inaugural single is entitled "Stranger" and is the kick-off for their upcoming album, 'Garden of Earthly Delights,' out October 25th via Frontiers Music Srl. Listen below!
Casandra comments on “Stranger:”
“'Stranger' was a really fun one to write to. I always wanted the lyrics to match the vibe of the music, and every time I listened to George’s demo, I got War of the Worlds / alien invasion vibes. I was second-guessing myself and thought it might be kind of dumb to write a song about that, so I asked my boyfriend his opinion, and he simply said, ‘Why not? Show me your ideas so far.' He actually liked what little I had, and proceeded to help me write the rest of the song that night! Little did we know, it would end up being the first single. So thank you, Jaron Gulino!”
The musical chemistry between these two talented artists has created a magnificent modern hard rock album that showcases Lynch's trademark riffage driven by the outstanding voice of Casandra Carson, who is set to be the next rock singing sensation.
About 'Garden of Earthly Delights,' Casandra also adds:
“Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever meet, let alone collaborate with such a legend as George Lynch! It was an absolute honor and pleasure to work with him on this record. George’s tracks were so cool and inspiring, it was probably some of the most fun I’ve ever had writing lyrics and melodies. I truly couldn’t be more proud of this album, and I’m so excited to finally share it with the rest of the world.”
George Lynch emerged from the '80s hard rock scene with the L.A.-based group Dokken
and went on to become a world-renowned guitarist. Aside from Dokken, he has also enjoyed great success with LYNCH MOB, the group he founded after leaving DOKKEN.
Lynch has gone on to become a prolific music creator, continuing with Lynch Mob, releasing solo albums, and a wealth of collaborative efforts over the decades. Those include but are not limited to, KXM with Doug Pinnick (King's X) and Ray Luzier (Korn), The End Machine with Jeff Pilson (Foreigner, ex-Dokken), Mick Brown (ex-Dokken), and Girish Pradhan (Girish & The Chronicles), Sweet & Lynch with Michael Sweet (Stryper), Ultraphonix with Corey Glover (Living Colour), and The Banishment with Joe Haze.
Casandra Carson is best known for her work fronting the Midwestern hard rock band Paralandra. Founded in 2013 with a strong DIY ethic, Paralandra found themselves on radio charts and festival stages in no time and by 2018 had a record deal, national tours supporting the likes of Saliva, Tantric, and Dokken, and even found themselves performing aboard the KISS Kruise! The band remains active and their most recent studio album, produced by the legendary Michael "Elvis" Beskette, came out in April of this year.
