Riley's L.A. Guns

about

In 2006, there were two L.A. Guns lineups, Phil Lewis's and Tracii Guns's. Steve Riley was a member of Lewis's lineup until it folded in 2016 when merging with Guns's version. Subsequently, Riley created his own version of L.A. Guns in 2019. This version released an album, Renegades, through Golden Robot records. In January 2020, Guns and Lewis sued Riley over the use of the L.A. Guns name. On April 23, 2021, they settled this dispute in court with Guns and Lewis retaining the L.A. Guns name, while Riley was made to change his versions to Riley's L.A. Guns. Riley's L.A. Guns released their first single called "Crawl" on April 20, 2020. This was followed up by a studio album 'Renegades' released on November 13, 2020 (Released as L.A Guns, before the name change had taken effect). This version of the band changed its name to "Riley's L.A. Guns" in April 2021 following a settlement reached between Riley with Tracii Guns and Phil Lewis. Riley’s L.A. Guns unveiled a single “Rewind” from their upcoming studio album 'The Dark Horse', to be released in 2023. Riley's L.A.
