In the summer of 2007 a group of guys joined to perform and preach the everyday fantasies that the average human shies away from. They work to open everyone’s eyes to life’s pleasures, and pull them away from the worries of being damned. This group out of Houston, Texas calls themselves “Where Vegas Lies”.
“Where Vegas Lies” was built through the eyes of Chris D’Angelo, guitarist/vocalist, who wrote about personal experiences and how he wanted everyone around him to break out of societies expectations. After a long journey playing with various artists Chris built a home studio where he laid his tracks and ideas on the table. Chris met Daniel Crain, lead guitarist, through an ex-girlfriend. Daniel had a free spirit personality and was always accompanied by a lady. Not ready to commit to any serious relationship, his guitar was his life time partner. Chris met Kyle at a concert in 2003. Kyle welcomed Chris to his home in Sugar Land, Texas where alcohol and music were the main attraction of the night. Kyle loves to entertain himself with a friendly atmosphere and people he is comfortable around.
After about three months of rehearsal these “Where Vegas Lies” performed their first show at a local coffee house. The show was a hit with over 200 attendees at a venue that was well over capacity. “Where Vegas Lies” moved on to bigger venues and bigger events; opening for bands like “Jupiter One” and “Run Kid Run”. In April of 2008 “Where Vegas Lies” put out their E.P. entitled “Faithful Sins”. Their single, "Lady Luck", was broadcasted on “Supernova’s” pod cast and “94.5 The Buzz” new artist.
Cody Willke took over managing the band and started booking shows at different local venues and pubs. Cody’s main goal was to put heavy hitting shows together with good bands who could draw to expand “Where Vegas Lies” audience. “Where Vegas Lies” played on a bill with a band called “3 Kisses” from Brenham, Texas. The two bands worked well together and built a strong relationship with each other playing show after show. “3 Kisses” later pitched the group to their label “Rat Pak Records”. “Where Vegas Lies” signed with “Rat Pak” at the beginning of March, 2009 and are waiting to release their first full length album entitled “Ace of Forgotten Hearts”.
This group of guys pulled together for one main reason: to open the world’s eyes to the human lusts that fuel the fire of our society today. Their lifestyle of pleasure, entertainment, and sinful touch creates the journey of “Where Vegas Lies”.
From all of us in “Where Vegas Lies” we'd like to thank everyone who has supported us in our ventures, and everyone that will soon be touched by our music. And remember to keep a little sin in your life!
