About Lead Pipe Cinch

It's difficult to define the band's genre Lead Pipe Cinch. In fact, LPC members have even described themselves at times as originators of a new musical genre: spaghetti/spunk/salsa, due to the ska/punk, Latin and spaghetti-western influences evidenced in their tunes. Their new self-titled CD was recorded and produced by Lenny Post at Hickory St. Studio in Blauvelt, N.Y.  


One editor quotes:

"The NYC-based band has a sound that can only be described as original and guitar driven, since the sheer variety of styles utilized is mind-boggling. Think Blondie meets Clapton, Joan Jett meets Allman Brothers or even Spiderman meets Santana." 
  - SARAH WILLARD, EVENT MAGAZINE (SEP 24, 2008)

The founding members of Lead Pipe Cinch actually met through Lenny Post @ Hickory St. Studio in Blauvelt, NY. during a recording session. The 4 musicians began collaborating and writing songs for TV/Film destinations that included a mix of many genres. Together they formed "LEAD PIPE CINCH!"
