Lions&Liars New article name new article content ... Lions&Liars(Band)- Lions&Liars is an American Rock band from Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Lions&Liars formed in May 2010 by Graham Howard and Spencer Brown. Lions&Liars released their debut EP "The Beginning..." in January 2011 which sold out of the limited 500 copies at local music stores and over 500 copies on iTunes. The band is made up of two sets of brothers, Colton Brown, vocals, Spencer Brown, Drums, and Graham Howard, Lead Guitar, Philip Howard, Bass.

Colton Brown met Graham Howard on their highschool basketball team. They started jamming and formed a garage band called "Sons of Thunder". After a few months Colton Brown recieved a basketball scholarship to Belmont Abbey College and left the band. After only two semesters, he dropped out. Upon his arrival home, his younger brother Spencer asked him to sing in his newly formed band with Howard on guitar. After auditioning several bass players, the trio settled on Grahams younger brother Philip. With the solid line-up, the band began playing shows around North Carolina and gained high respect in the local music scene. While metal and hard-core music began dying down, Lions&Liars' old-school Rock sound and high energy performances captured their audiences. The band began playing at several colleges in North Carolina, eventually leading to an opening spot for the famed DJ Girl Talk.
