Lo Woods & Three Point 0 (3.0)
Loren “Lo” Woods has been playing guitar for over 35 years. In the 70’s and early 80s he played in the Indianapolis based Rock n’ Roll bands Champion, Black Dog, Jubal and Phoenix and gained a reputation for being the premier guitar “gunslinger” in the Midwest, down through the southeast to Florida and all points in between. More recently, Lo does his three piece rock band Three Point 0 (3.0). He has recently been enlisted to play some shows with The Gee Men featuring Jon E Gee from John Mellencamp’s band and has done one show with them at McGuffy’s House of Rock in Dayton OH to rave reviews.
The purpose of this package is to promote Lo Woods & Three Point 0 because it is where this artist shines best. They are a Rock, Blues and overall “good time band” that plays some classic rock but mostly classic to current rock n’ roll with an emphasis on 90s guitar rock with cool vocal harmonies. Lo will throw in a few of his long list of original songs when the mood calls for it or sometimes by request but the main agenda is familiar music that people can sing along to with the power that is inherent in this group of outstanding musicians, which includes Dan Davis on bass guitar – vocals and Larry “Bongo” Brannon, drums – vocals.
He was co-winner of the National Annual Billboard Song Contest honorable mention in 1993 and in that same year was featured in Guitar Magazine.
He was voted one of the five best guitar players of mp3.com in 1999 and was featured along with the other four, including Harvey Mandell on the “Guitar Gunslingers of mp3.com” cd released worldwide.
Featured on Guitar 9 Records online as one of the best “undiscovered” guitarists in the country. Click here to read the article
Lo has written and recorded well over 100 pieces of music in a variety of categories and continues to pursue his original calling to this day.
In 1992 Lo released the album “It Might Take Years” recorded in Frankfort Indiana at Superior Sonics, co-produced by Rick Knapp who is now touring the world with Walter Trout and the Free Radicals.

A Few Sample Quotes/Reviews
"The music finds Loren "Lo" Woods walking slowly or skipping across the fretboards at will and when called for. A complete guitarist!" *John Stix, Editor In Chief, Guitar For The Practicing Musician
"Shattering Conventional Notions Of Guitar Playing. Guitar-driven and cinematic, the tracks on his latest CD offer plenty of imagination, melody and of course, the occasional hyper-speed moments that display Woods' command of his instrument." *Guitar 9 Records
"Opening for Robin Trower at The Vogue, The Lo Woods Band Played a set that was phenomenal as is his album It Might Take Years."
*Jeff Napier, Nuvo News weekly, Indianapolis
“Woods himself slid his hands up and down a guitar throughout his performances, picking it apart as it seemed to voice its own lyrics” *By Brian M. Boyce, The Tribune-Star, Terre Haute, Indiana, read the story

Born in a little log cabin by
some railroad tracks on January 20, 1955 to a mother who was a Nun and a father
who was a wino, it has been an uphill battle ever since. My growth was stunted
at first due to a regular diet of crawdads, water bugs and dirt. In my early
teens I went searching for secluded places to learn to play guitar while most of
my friends were stealing cars and knocking over Coke machines. Hey, they had
their ways of expressing themselves and I had mine. Occasionally I would give in
and hang out with my friends but I quickly realized that Juvenile Center and
Jail weren\'t exactly my idea of peaceful secluded places, the ambience
wasn\'t conducive to art.
By the time I was 15 the Hippie
thing was in full swing, which was perfect for me because my second hand clothes
and failure to make it to the barbershop were automatically in style. 1970
through 1976 took me through a variety of mostly three-piece Rock n.. Roll bands
and some nightclubs where murder, mayhem, mischief, debauchery and
record-breaking alcohol and drug consumption were the norm. If I had a dollar
for every time I survived a murder attempt, I would have about five bucks.
My tenure with the dynamic and
enthusiastic Champion Band (1976
through 1981) was the wildest ride of my life. As a matter of fact, it was so
much fun that it sent me into retirement and back to finding secluded places to
re-learn how to play. The 100 or so tunes I have written and recorded since then are a testament instrumentally and vocally to all of the events of my life.
