"We're a 3 piece band" says Mike "But we can make it sound like 6". Tafoya's Lost Boyzz are piorneering a new genre best described as New Classic Rock. They work together as the ultimate power trio, complete with layers of vocal harmonies that seem so effortless. Michael has been rock and rolling for decades with nothing in his bones to slow his creative flow! Chris and Erik provide a rock solid foundation then Mike's guitar screams, rants, sears or soars, whereever it goes, you go with it.
