"LoNe WolF" (a.k.a. Loud Noize) is a solo alternative rock artist that has been evolving within the music scene of northern Illinois since 2018. He's been involved in many open mic and solo concert performances at multiple venues in the Dekalb, IL area including: "The House Café" (before it closed down), "Ax-In-Hand Guitar Shop," "La Calle Bar & Music Venue"(Nov. 2023), and at the Historic Ellwood House...featuring in "Hypnotizame: Beatles Night" at the end of October (2019)...with the latter two events being hosted by "Wooden Box Theater."

A creative singer who writes what is in my heart.

Daniel Lars: Multi-Instrumentalist, vocalist, songwriter, producer. Born, initially grew up in the heart of San Francisco. Music deeply rooted...young age of four.

Daniel Lars: "My father would play stacks of vinyl from extensive record collection. Especially, during weekends. Late, through the night. Recall in record collection...early Beatles, Big Band, classical, jazz, Elvis, Frank Sinatra, MC5, Dusty Springfield, Motown. Various country artists in record collection. While my oldest brothers were playing '60s rock, Southern Rock, English psychedelic bands, from vinyl collection. During late '60s psychedelic era, early '70s." 

Young age of twenty, Daniel decided to seriously pursue music career. First band, younger brother on bass. Jammed with various musicians, friends, bands. San Francisco Bay Area, during the eighties.

His two lovely rescue cats Syd & Ziggy, daily magical hikes in the forest...are current "musical" inspirations. Cheers.

Timeless songs turned into stadium-ready ReVAMPs — neon synth fire, chrome guitars, cowboy precision, and 80s glam voltage.

ReVAMPD universe: cinematic rock moments, cowboy swagger, intense hooks, high-octane energy.

Hello listener -  I am singing and writing my way through intense grief.  I record everything myself in GarageBand: singing every harmony, playing acoustic rhythm guitar, V-Drums, and percussion. I use outside stem tracks wherever I want extra instrumentation. This is a true DIY process — heartfelt, handmade, and on a shoestring budget — but I’m learning and improving with every track.  I've been going through intensive mixing and mastering training so that I can get all my songs out of DEMO mode.

My signature sound is acoustic-driven songs with a 3-4 octave range layered with rich three- and four-part harmonies. I move between genres depending on the mood of each song, but I always stay true to what feels honest. I’m a throwback rocker-hippie soul who writes straight from the heart — vulnerable, real, and unfiltered.

I spent years performing covers in Las Vegas and the San Francisco Bay Area, covering artists from rock, jazz, pop, funk and metal. After a long break to focus on family, life brought me to the Olympic Peninsula in Washington. Surrounded by forest, ocean, and the distant silhouette of Vancouver Island, I found a peace I had never known. I bought myself a Johnny Cash Martin guitar and started recording covers that helped me heal.

That process reopened a creative door I thought had closed. My poetry and life stories turned into songs, and over the next year and a half I wrote what became my first 30 songs.

When I perform live, I use a Roland Cube EX amp, my Johnny Cash Martin guitar, a Shure mic and in-ears, and a MacBook Pro running through a Scarlett Solo for my backing tracks. Technology is what makes this OneWomanBand journey possible, and I’m deeply grateful for it.

To Erika, Rachel, Brooklynn, Rylie, and Lukas — you are forever in my heart. This music is the legacy of love I leave for you. I used to sing silly songs with you every chance I got. Since losing you in 2019, writing and performing is how I manage that loss. I will never stop hoping to see you again.

Thanks for listening.
Peace. 🌿

Born in 1980 under the name KRT, the band began its journey in the raw energy of live shows — in Spain, including a memorable concert in Burgos, and in Brussels at the Teatro. Those early years, intense and furious, were wiped away overnight: all archives, tapes, posters, and memories stolen in a single car theft, as if someone had tried to erase history itself.

By the late ’80s and early ’90s, the group found shelter in the former RKM studio on Avenue Molière in Brussels, under the demanding ear of artistic producer Jean-Claude Maury. From those sessions emerged Fast Beat and The Ballad of the Mouse and the Bird, defining tracks that carved NUR’s sound into stone — dark, restless, untamed.

After a split and years of silence, the band resurfaced under the name NUR, carried this time by the new promise of the digital age. The music could no longer be erased; it was destined to survive.

But fate struck again: the passing of one of the founding members closed the collective chapter. Today, NUR rises once more, as a solo incarnation. More than a project: a resurrection. A flame still burning, more than forty years after its first spark.
