Dark, light, hard and soft and they will rock your socks off. Who might I be referring to? The Skinny Guns, a northern California band with the edgy eloquence of the Doors and the raw rock and roll sex appeal of an early Guns & Roses or Stone Temple Pilots. (think G&R, meets Kings of Leon, meets the Doors).
Led by front man Somori Pointer(nephew of the world famous Pointer Sisters) who has the ability to bring a brash, raspiness to his songs, “Mr. Right”, then settle into a vulnerable sensitivity “Do you Run” that leaves you emotionally dissected. Lead guitarist Eric Lindsey’s style is a perfect counterpart to Somori’s vocal performance. From heavy crunching chords, “Boomerang” to delicate, soulful riffs “I.C.U.” the guitar and lyrics appear to be seamless while watching The Skinny Guns live. Leaving the classic lead guitarist, lead vocalist bond intact. The rhythm section starts where it always does, the drummer. Conor Acomb keeps the beat for The Skinny Guns, steady and driving. He will throw some fills in to add texture to the songs, but does not try to over-power the audience. Rounding out The Skinny Guns is their rhythm guitarist Brian Lindsey. Just introduced as the rhythm Guitar, Brian will add to meat of the music and accent Erics lead guitar. He will give the music depth in a way it hasn't seen before.
The Skinny Guns deliver anything from self introspection, to songs dealing with world events, to rock anthems, all the way back to good old bluesy, sweaty, black leather rock and roll music.

“We all come from such diverse backgrounds, but we come together where it counts, the music. It’s beautiful, we can all be broken together.” – Somori Pointer
