Artist description With dynamics ranging from shimmering piano to full-on guitar rock energy, Like a Villain delivers a non-stop set of radio-friendly, ear-catching modern rock with just the right amount of edge -- and demonstrates a true talent for lyrically and musically painting dynamic portraits of the trials of relationships and life.Founded in late 1999, the Denver-based group has quickly evolved into one of the Rocky Mountain region's most promising original modern/alternative rock acts. Laird, Smith and Hyde, the three prinicipal songwriters in Like a Villain, share a vision that has helped create a sound that brings together a love of recent bands like Foo Fighters, REM and The Counting Crows with influences like The Beatles, Led Zeppelin and Queen.
