Once in a great rock & roll moon a band comes along that defies the law of modern music and the popular formula of musical endeavors. Bound by brotherhood, upbringing, common goals, style, and perseverance, coupled with the love and respect of each member, on top of being a collective bunch of bad asses, Sweetlake Mafia creates a sound that sinks into each musical soul it touches and paints a picture of band originality to last forever. From its inception Sweetlake Mafia chose to write its own rock & roll direction. It’s strong with a hint of vulnerability and shifts between the musical styles of Rock & Blues, American Hard Rock, Motown, Heavy Metal, and Punk with the confidence of superstars. They combine those elements in a way that’s both surprising and invigorating. Sweetlake Mafia came out of the gate with songs glued together by skull crushing, heart stopping, emotional lyrics that permeate truth and music that pulses with the vibrancy, tenacity and energy of youth. School mates and life-long friends, Zach Goynes (guitar and vocals), Bradley “No Fear” Duncan (bass and vocals), Ronald Norman (guitar and vocals), Tyler Arnold (drums and vocals), and Cody Oliphant aka Dj Codine (Turntables), have created a sound and a vibe that is contagious. They are musical counterparts that create their own signature rock foundation.
