Lyres Biography
The LYRES are a Boston-based band, lead by Jeff Conolly. DMZ was the pre-Lyres line-up, with some musicians playing in Lyres. As plenty of Boston bands, the story is quite complicated, and going to side-bands and linked bands drive more to a real web than a tree.
One source was Pete Frame's band tree as reprinted in A Promise Is A Promise (scanned hereafter), the other from Joe Harvard's Rock in Boston : "Luckily, Lyres veteran Dan McCormack took pity on my pathetically inadequate archival efforts, and sent me the following list of Lyres line-ups. It contradicts the family tree in the A Promise Is A Promise LP, compiled by Rock Family Tree guy Pete Frame, which Danny figures "may be approx 70% correct". Former band members have pointed out that Frame garnered 100% of his data straight from Jeff'- and they cite this as the primary reason that it's not quite all there."
Re-forming as DMZ for a couple of gigs in New York (Cavestomp!2001 at Warsaw - nov.3 & 4 ; dec.28th), still playing in 2003. Also still playing as LYRES in 2003.
