DEATH MEDDLE........
By some appearances Lonnie Fisher is a morbid fellow....he and his band, THE FUNERAL, featuring Steve Bagwell, Charles McVey and former Sturgeon Mill drummer Chris Nunez, drive a white hearse to shows and have the appearance of a band that won't quit until it's six feet underground.
That voice-a classic sound modeled after Roy Orbison's croon-quotes,"write what you feel and people will listen, my favorite songwriters don't put any barrier in front of what they're willing to write". Perhaps it's the proximity of tragedy that keeps Fisher so motivated. His signature song is titled "Kill Yourself or I Will"-an elegy for a friend who committed suicide. Later, after the disbanding of his outfit Sturgeon Mill, a fixture in Lawrence from 1999-2002, Fisher traded his guitar for a fishing pole and a chefs hat, which ended in 2005 with the release of his solo album "Ghost of The Ballerina", a keenly produced affair engineered by Ed Rose at Blacklodge Studio....................RICHARD GINTOWT from PITCH WEEKLY.
