Lillian Axe formed in Louisiana in 1983 with Ron Taylor on vocals, Steve Blaze and Rob Stratton on guitars, Michael Ney on bass, and David Voltz on drums. They put out their self-titled debut album in 1988, a straightforward hard rock record that got them some local notice. Their 1990 follow-up, 'Love and War,' had a bigger reach, partly thanks to the ballad 'The Day I Met You.'
After that, things got less steady. Members came and went, and the band's third album, 1992's 'Poetic Justice,' took a darker turn that didn't sit as well with everyone. They kept putting out music through the 1990s and 2000s, with songs like 'Show A Little Love' and 'Become a Monster' showing up in their later catalog. The sound shifted around some over those years, but Taylor remained the constant voice.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
