Green Lemon - Fort Collins, CO

Entering 2007 with a surge of momentum, Green Lemon is now taking things to the next level. Since forming in Oklahoma City back in 1999 and relocating to Ft. Collins, CO in 2001, Green Lemon has toured relentlessly playing over 750+ live shows over the past six years. Over the course of those years they forged a musical wake through the waters of the national music scene, earning a rapidly growing following from coast to coast and creating a national community of fans. G.L. ritualistically tops off a blend of rock, reggae, funk, electronica, and on-the-spot improvisation with deep-seated lyrics and soaring vocal melodies. It is their eclectic musical nature that allows G.L. to access, experiment within, and expand upon the many musical genres that grace our sonic environment. It is also through this inclusive ability that G.L. seamlessly bridges the gap between styles and creates a unique sound all of their own. Match that unique aural experience with an entrancing light show and you have an amalgam that is sure to leave you with a lasting musical memory.

Green Lemon will be releasing the long over-due sophomore later this year.

"Jamband's March New Groove of the Month, Green Lemon, was dually impressive. Although I'd heard plenty of their music beforehand, nothing on disc compared to the energy of the Oklahoma natives' live show. Green Lemon revealed a high octane performance that from start to finish, never let up. Merging pumping electronica beats with smooth reggae melodies and some shredding guitar solos, they induced a more than sizeable crowd into a steady fervor making many wonder just who this band was." - Jambands.com, On G.L.’s Live Wakarusa ’05 Performance.

“It was a discussion, and argument, about the merits of the Grateful Dead school and the Yes/early Genesis school of music. The discussion was getting heated when one of us, and I can't remember who, injected this thought: "man, how sweet would it be if Yes would take that wild trippy prog shit they do and just start jamming with it like Jerry?" It stopped the conversation cold and I have been searching ever since for a band that can do it. I've found them.” - Kyndmusic.com

“Their music surrealistically fuses island, jam, acid jazz, funk and electronica with a stream of vocals flowing throughout that'll make your mouth water. This music is euphoric.” -Jambase.com
