“What the Express offers is so good it’s scary….”
Rainey Wetnight of Blues Blast Magazine, Creve Couer, Illinois, USA

“The passion and energy that soared out of this band…..seduced the crowd into a hushed silence.”
Terry Stevens Apt613, Canada

“Lucas has been described by one sound engineer as "the greatest guitarist I have heard." Think Eric Clapton in his youth and at his best and you will understand this statement. Simple blues riffs or driving soaring guitar solos are all accomplished with equal skill by Lucas.”
Rory Stanbridge of FATEA Records UK

The LH Express is a soulful, fun-filled and electrifying musical ride! Lucas Haneman has long been widely regarded for his distinctive and explosive guitar work. Along with Megan Laurence, who is a force of nature wherever she is present as a singer, these 2 create a musical partnership that is electrifying. Martin Newman (bass), & Valera Negovora (drums) round out the LH Express, giving them their one of a kind sound drenched in the blues, funk, and a little something they can call their own.

They’ve released 4 studio length albums to date and have opened for The Dave Matthews Band, Legendary bluesman Robert Cray, Australian bassist Tal Wilkenfeld of Jeff Beck fame, The Down Childs Blues Band, and The John Butler Trio to name a few.
