“HE HAS A WAY OF COMBINING HIS UNIQUE SOULFUL STYLE WITH ROCK, REGGAE, COUNTRY AND BLUES TUNES.” (Julie Tavares)


“My work on this recently-released CD is a mix of creative avenues; a multi-thread you follow – and maybe – find your own personal connection!” (Lyle)




Lyle spent 12 months in Las Vegas, then two more years on tour in Canada and throughout the United States. He performed for sophisticated audiences in large cities and for country folks in rural towns – where members of the audience sometimes rode tractors or horses to the theatre.

Lyle’s reviews were consistently excellent. Although touring was strenuous, Lyle maintained an extraordinary amount of energy on stage – the hallmark of a truly professional artist.

The critics continue to praise Lyle’s incredible work – most recently his eclectic new release, “Before 3003, Peace and Tranquility.” Every song on the CD was written by Lyle.

His is an eclectic mix of rock, with folk, pop, blues, and country blues elements. Some say his is post-grunge…
“This music sounds like nothing else you’ve probably ever heard. If you absorb the music as it embraces and uplifts you, be prepared to be transported to unknown places.” (Julie Tavares, ‘3003’, executive co-producer).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was during the year of October 1969 when I was chosen to play the lead role of ‘Claude’ in the Hawaiian production of HAIR

Later on we found that a theater was not available on the island of O’ahu because of community protests-none of the theaters in Honolulu wanted to risk bad publicity from the ‘obscene’ show. A home eventually was secured for us in Las Vegas for a one-year run at the International Hilton Hotel.

Several scenes in HAIR, were sacred spiritual in nature that had the power then just as it does today, to manage to find its way deep inside the psyche and conjure up those burial images and places traveled before; these were well kept secrets.

Now waiting and demanding to reveal themselves; their rightful place lying down beside me, as ‘Claude’ lay dead on stage. No, it wasn’t simple. Images came during the Vietnam War songs, walking across the stage coming for my friends, and just the right amount of movement by me, I made the images disappear. They managed to come back heavy, during Mercury and Venus National tours.

When finally, I had learned how to cry, by just letting it happen-it stopped!

To this day
I still cry, the images are gone; I cry over silly things, like injustices, rain forests destroyed, indigenous peoples slaughtered and babies neglected. I run with rage at incompetence, and conscious neglect, arrogance and puffed up egos, and yet I am only human, still trying to connect with my God to turn righteous anger into works of miracles.

The compassionate nature of the spirit through feelings and imagery is enough for comprehension. I owe a debt to our fallen heroes, spirits who commune,and thousands upon thousands of ‘children of the rainbow’ who have suffered and continue to suffer in agony without the light of day, never experiencing lasting joy.

Peace my friends,
