Lot Lizards is a high-energy melodic punk rock band from St. Petersburg, Florida, delivering fast, hook-driven songs that channel the spirit of classic 90s and 2000s punk. Formed in 2021 in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the band found its voice by leaning into raw emotion, tight musicianship, and a love for the kind of punk that sticks with you.

Taking influence from bands like Face to Face, Bigwig, Propagandhi, No Use for a Name, and Lagwagon, Lot Lizards creates punk rock that is catchy, aggressive, and built for the stage. Their songs are meant to be played live, turned up loud, and shouted back by the crowd.

The band is made up of Jon Barnes on vocals and guitar, Alex Trellu on bass and vocals, and Mikey Henk on drums. Together they bring a no-nonsense, full-throttle approach that has earned them a growing reputation for powerful shows and honest songwriting.

Lot Lizards isn’t here to reinvent the genre. They’re here to remind you why you fell in love with it in the first place.

Regarding the new single, Jon Barnes (Lot Lizards) says, “Great Escapes is a song about hiding from the horrors of everyday life by letting your mind go where it wants to go.”
