  • Bio

    Tom and Sleet have played in a band together from the age of 14. After several bands, Hairem Scarem, ten mile stare, BREAKING UP WITH GINGER, Busten Halter, bag of tricks, and whatever i want, to name a few. Then they crossed paths with Joe. Joe had the time, talent, and musical influences to make a great match. Joe also brought something to the table that was foreign to Sleet, a happy love song. Writing music for Joe and Sleet is therapeutic. Sleet brings the bitter while Joe adds the sweet. Together it is a really nice mix. LPA is finishing up work on their sixth album. It is an album of covers called "Under the Influences". If you would like a copy of their first five albums, they would be happy to send you one. Metamora Shortcut- 1st album Just North of Normal- 2nd album Snackie Onassis- 3rd album Leonard's Great Reward- 4th album Osh Vegas- 5th album Under the Influences (cover album)- 6th album
