Flea, the bass player for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, said this about Weapon of Choice: “Lonnie's one of the funkiest bass players alive today - I've totally copped stuff off him...” (source: Bassplayer Magazine). Stone Gossard, the guitarist for Pearl Jam, who originally signed Weapon of Choice to Sony550, has this to say: “I signed this band first and foremost because of their musicianship and stage personality, they're the kind of band that likes to tour to break down barriers, so nothing's going to stop them.”
One listen to Weapon of Choice, one live show experience, and you're hooked.
Rated as one of the Top 8 Funk bass players in music, along with Flea, Larry Graham, Bootsy Collins, Victor Wooten and others, (Bass Player Magazine), Lonnie “Mega*Nut” Marshall leads the band not only as the groove controlling bassist, but as the lead vocalist, continually amazing crowds with his unparalleled stage presence and talent.
