Hi, I'm Lyle "Guitargeezer" Leiser. Welcome to my website. Each page features music from my old band, Sister Ray, or from the guest artist featured on a page. You are listening to my original song, "War Is Not The Answer", which was recorded with Sister Ray. The Lyrics are at the bottom of this page! I've also added a "Video" page, which includes my video for "War Is Not The Answer" .
My band, Sister Ray, went on hiatus in October of 2008. They may continue on without me, and they will always have a spot in my heart and on my website.
My current projects include forming a new band with my music collaborator, KC Creek. This project is in its formative stages and hopefully we'll get out there and play out in a few months.
I play from time to time with Captain Jimmy & The Castaway Band. He's on tour right now, and I'm not able to join him. Hopefully, I can participate in some local gigs in 2008-2009. Earlier this year, I played on Captain Jimmy's latest CD, "Harbors Of Your Soul." The Captain's CD is available at www.cdbaby.com.
I produced and played on Berd Hand's latest CD. Berd is a bluesy singer with a great voice for Blues, Rock or Country. I've been in projects with her before (The Berd Hand Band) and am excited about her CD. One of her songs is featured on her page.
Other past projects include Voodoo Blue, Relic, The Foxy Morons, Slack Tide, Head Gear, and The Steele Grey Band.
My arsenal includes a Fender Esquire, Custom Fender Stratocaster, 1965 Rickenbacker 425, Two "Leiser" custom Teles, Gibson Les Paul Jr., Gibson Sonex 180, a Wilson Brothers VM-75 (Ventures) guitar, a Gretsch Electromatic G5120 and a Danelectro '63. My amps are a Fender Super-Sonic, and a Fender Deluxe.
