Lionize

Lionize is an American rock band, formed in 2004 and based in Montgomery County, Maryland. Their sound has been described as a reggae rock with elements of hard rock, jazz, heavy metal, and punk. One reviewer described the band as "kind of like if the guys in Deep Purple were Rastafarians wrapped in trippy sci-fi imagery."

The band consists of singer/guitarist Nate Bergman, keyboardist Chris Brooks, and bassist Henry Upton. LaMel Randolph and Chase Lapp have served as drummers for the band. They have long been connected with fellow Maryland band Clutch, and that band's guitarist Tim Sult is a frequent collaborator on stage and in the studio.
