Lefroy Band Interview
By Big Al Weekley for Country Music News International Magazine & Radio Show
Barry Lefroy is a well respected Canadian bass player having played with famous bands in the 70’s and a successful business entrepreneur. He is also the mastermind behind the debut song/video/band Lefroy, having first come up with the idea of remaking Bob Dylan’s classic, “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” in a way it had never been heard before. Barry had been seeing the extreme unrest in our country and his goal with the project overall was to help bring unity through a video that embraces peace and compassion. He brought these ideas to his son, also named Barry, and his son’s close friends, Paul Susanka and Kevan Wallace (audio engineer/drummer). They began working on the project with Barry Sr acting as executive producer, closely collaborating with Paul (directing) to display the vision for the sound they were about to complement. While making the video, Barry realized the song could bring meaning and hope to those diagnosed with diabetes and is passionate about making a contribution to research and finding the ultimate cure. Inspired by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Barry plans to create a big rock show with elaborate set pieces, pyrotechnics, and many of Southern California’s best musicians, to create an evening that will blow the minds of all in attendance!
