- The first and most important thing you need to know about Lakeview is that they want crowds to stage-dive at their shows. Once you know that, everything else about this country rock band makes sense. Hailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and currently based in Nashville, Tennessee, Jesse Denaro and Luke Healy are taking their passions for metal and Americana into an emerging genre that really doesn't have a name. "Blue-collar County Metal," "Yallternative," or "whatever your flavor is," these guys just want to annihilate stages with their heavy country jams just like their idols in bands like Hatebreed and The Acacia Strain.
"People are saying that we make heavy country music," Denaro told PopCulture.com via Zoom. "We just write what we feel like writing. Sometimes it's not very heavy, sometimes it is." With decades in the hardcore and metal scene between them, the pair connected and began writing music together, with their sound eventually evolving into some guitar-heavy country songs. "It's just a byproduct of us," Denaro said. "It wasn't one day we were like, 'Hey, we should make a heavy song.' It was just kind of as we started to write more songs with each other. If you listen to the songs we've put out, it's almost like a roadmap of just an exponential growth of me and Luke both finally finding where we fit the most comfortable."
"This all started with us just kind of screwing around writing songs anyway," he continued. "It wasn't like, 'Let's go be musicians and be famous.' We were like, 'Hey, I want to write these songs,' and 'Yeah, let's try it.'" Healy adds, "We were like completely not touring. We were like, 'Yo, we've already lost everything to music in our lives. And we're old and men now, and we're still just now starting after all these years.'"
