[edit] Biography
Most of Lo-Pro's band members were already rock veterans at the time of the creation of the band; Pete Murray and Neil Godfrey had been in Ultraspank, Tommy Stewart was Godsmack's original drummer, and Jonathan Fahnestock had played in both Amen and Snot. Lo-Pro was the first signing of Aaron Lewis' 413 Records, his vanity imprint through Geffen. By the summer of 2003, Lo-Pro was in the studio with producer Don Gilmore, also producer for Pearl Jam and Linkin Park. A few months later, their eponymous album was released.
After the band was finished touring in support of the album, they were dropped by 413 records. Nothing much was heard from the group until late 2005, when the track "Ingenious" was released on their MySpace.
Currently Lo-Pro is looking for "the right label" to release their second album. They currently have some of the new tracks up on their MySpace page[1]. The tracks include "Texas," "Blame Me" and "Breathe."
The band recently started up another MySpace page which features four acoustic songs. "Clean the Slate," "This is Not Goodbye," "Reach," and "Not Me" are now available[2]. Also, drummer Tommy Stewart recently joined Fuel as their full-time drummer.
