Troy Van Leeuwen

Troy Van Leeuwen is a guitarist whose name is known by musicians across the globe. Van Leeuwen was a member of the L.A. band, Little Boots, from 1986 -1987. Where they did not have an official release, they did record some demos and play a few shows. The next time we see him is with 60 Cycle, where he appeared on two of their releases. This is also where he met Kellii Scott (future drummer of Enemy and Failure). He then went on to the group Failure until they fell apart in the late '90s. Shortly after that Troy went on to appear on the albums of many different bands, including Korn, Coal Chamber, Deadsy, and Crazy Town, when he was approached by Maynard James Keenan to join A Perfect Circle. Troy stayed with APC for an album and a half, Mer de Noms and Thirteenth Step, before taking the second guitarist position with Queens of the Stone Age on the Songs for the Deaf tour. Though he is still with QOTSA, he is also fronting his own "dumb rock band" called Enemy who released their first album, Hooray for Dark Matter, on October 11, 2005. According to Troy, Enemy is working on a follow-up album. He has also been a part of the Desert Sessions, appearing on Volumes 9 & 10.
