Graham Collett (ex-Lionsheart): "You have to make music people want to hear!"



When I think about bands that emerged in a wrong time the name Lionsheart comes to my mind among the first ones. Their debut album “Lionsheart” (1992) was such a great collection of top-class songs. It had everything to become a hit (and it did in certain countries) and should sell in millions of copies (which it unfortunately didn’t). The band always consisted of great musicians but there were two gentlemen — Steve Grimmett and Graham Collett — who remained permanent members of the band during the 90’s and recorded three studio albums. I guess that the band suffered from those line-up changes as much as they did from lacking of label support and Grunge invasion.
I contacted Graham to cover the story of Lionsheart and he turned to be such an incredible storyteller — witty, smart and fun. Have a good read, folks!
