Lennon Page's brand of rock & roll is the perfect complement to any dancing, energetic crowd full of "rock of classics" lovers. Playing cover tunes such as "I Can't Quit You Baby" by Led Zeppelin, "The House is Rockin" by Stevie Ray Vaughan and "All Shook up" by Elvis Presley (done in double time), this act reaches true rock proportions. The original tunes of the evening, like "Nothin' but the Truth", "The Hurt Won't Seem To Stop", and "I Know In My Heart" are soulful, bluesy and straight no chaser. Add in his crowd pleasing re-tooling of "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'" and you have a complete event of guitar featured rock that sets Lennon page apart from the multitude of L.A. performers. Musicians seem to be entranced watching Lennon Page work his red Rickenbacker through his Vox amp!
With a vocal that perfectly complements his bluesy musical style, Lennon Page connects with his audience like very few entertainers can. However, with a steady hand and a loose, casual style, Page's guitar work is an obvious main event in his performance. He does some of his best work when he and his guitar are left to their own devices.
Lennon Page is a true-blooded entertainer. The band takes the stage and starts playing while Page is nowhere to be seen, though his riffs fill the venue. Eventually, he walks through the front door, playing his way through the packed crowd like a mariachi in a Mexican Restaurant, pausing to show his skills every now and then on his way to the stage. His deft fingers and heartfelt love for his music and his audience makes for an extraodinarily entertaining show.
In today's world of stylistic combinations and musical crossbreeding, it's nice to know that some people still hold true to their roots. Lennon Page is one of those folks. His no nonsense approach to classic rock & roll, mixed with faultless showmanship, give the crowd a rockin' good time.

Lennon Page has rock star written all over him: from his torn blue jeans to his onstage swagger and his personal life mysteriously hidden from his fans. Page has recently released "LA Rockabilly Blues" and is currently playing throughout the Southland.
I took the name Lennon Page from two artists (John Lennon and Jimmy Page) who I admire."
Lennon Page is a real musician. As a child he was drawn to oldies and the Beatles. His parents recognized his love for music and gave him an acoustic guitar when was 8. Lennon plunked around on it, not getting serious until he was 12.
In high school, Lennon Page joined his first band, Velvet Mourning, and began taking guitar lessons three times a week from three different teachers. He was in and out of a variety of bands. Then in 1977, he decided to learn how to sing because most of the groups he was in broke up after they lost a vocalist, who would also usually take most of the songs with him. Lennon finally ran into bassist/vocalist Keith Tolmich and the two formed his next band, Speed Limit, and started writing songs together.
Speed Limit broke up, but Lennon Page and Tolmich have remained writing partners and still help each other with new projects. The new line up for "The Lennon Page Band" is rounded out with drummer J. Schmutz, R.T. Harris on bass, and Voyce McGinley III on percussion.
Lennon Page is a soft-spoken intellectual with an easygoing manner. He attended Cal State Sacramento and Cal State Los Angeles earning a bachelor's degree in speech communications. He has taught English at High School's in Los Angeles and also produces and performs on his cable access show, "The Lennon Page Show."
"I enjoy the club scene where you can get right up close to the people," Page says.
Lennon Page will be busy with his new line-up recording a new album.
"I want to make an album of toe-tappers, songs that get you up, make you dance, give you energy at work or while driving your car," he said. "I want to make music of universal appeal, happy music, music that everybody likes, songs that old people and young people can both enjoy in a park, in a club, in a restaurant, in a living room - anywhere---just fun music. That's the only goal."
