Hook driven guitar rock with electrifying melodies, classic roots, infectious sound and energy packed performances, best describes the Tempe, AZ alternative pop-rock band “Lightyear.” "These guys are so good, so energetic, and so into what they're doing that if I had a radio station I'd play'em, right now" says Joe Hartlaub, Music-reviewer.com. Credits to the band are numerous. Lightyear toured regionally from New Mexico up the west coast to Seattle on their own. They've also toured regionally with the CTN Tour with Cherry Recording artist "Stroke 9". Lightyear has opened for numerous national artists. They performed at the Fiesta Bowl New Years Eve Block party in 2000,2002 and 2004 and recently the Phoenix Fabulous 4th, 2004 headlining the 2nd stage.
