REVIEWS FOR IZZY KUCERA:

"The Double Door in February 2006 was the greatest live experience I've ever had. The Lizard [Izzy Kucera] was phenomenal that night. His roots are the blues, but he is also a lethal flamethrower. He is an unparalleled showman who reminded me why I picked up a guitar in the first place. He is the next link in the rock tradition. Physical, financial, imaginary, and emotional dangers are his friends, not his fear. The Lizard knows that the bum screaming about Jesus and Wild Irish Rose across from you on the blue line is more interesting than the accountant to your right. He is an absolute mad genius. The Lizard will always stand as one of the most confusing and insightful individuals that I will ever meet. He adheres tightly to his own moral code, not yours or the pope's. His values are his own and yours will not be inflicted upon him. However, he will be glad to discuss it with you for hours over a pint. At the end of it, you'll have no idea what the hell just happened, but you'll find yourself wondering when you'll get to do it again." --Dave Zero 

"The production is very clean throughout, and you can hear all the individual contributions to the band's overall sound without too much extra effort. Co-producer (along with Johns) Larry Kucera [Lizard] obviously deserves some credit here, and deserves plaudits for his guitar playing too, which is particularly noteworthy on "Playing Blues Every Day and Night" and the ensuing closer, "I'm Only Being Me," which rounds things off in style." --Gordon Baxter, Blues on Stage, March 2007, Review for Tenry Johns album 'Need Your Love' 

... guitarist Larry Kucera [Lizard] punctuates Johns' vocals with some edgy guitar that's reminiscent of sounds on Muddy Waters' brilliant ... 'Electric Mud' sessions, proving that blues has just as much of a right to borrow from rock as rock has borrowed from the blues. --The Fort Wayne Indiana Frost Illustrated (January 28 - February 3 2004) Arts & Entertainment

Izzy "Lizard" was born Larry Kucera (Lawrence Edward Kucera) one fine autumn day on Kedzie Avenue in Chicago (October 18th, 1968). He was raised and schooled there. He was later raised in adjacent areas such as Franklin Park, Mt. Prospect, and Glen Ellyn, Il where he experienced much culture shock but eventually committed to becoming a Glen Ellyn boy. He has spent most of his life living between major waterways near inland seas. At one time, Lizard had gotten himself all the way up to 195 pounds.
