The great civil rights leader John Lewis famously encouraged people to \u201cget in good trouble,\u201d the kind of trouble that disrupts the status quo in order to bring about positive change. Well, fans of guitar phenom Lance Lopez are about to have a little \u201cgood trouble\u201d headed their way. Today, Lopez releases his brand new album\u00a0Trouble Is Good<\/em>, an all-original album and his first in over 5 years that surely marks the culmination of this brilliant artist\u2019s extraordinary journey from young Texas blues prodigy to one of the most vibrant voices in guitar-based music today!

Featuring a whole host of stellar guest performers including drummer Brian Tichy (Whitesnake, Foreigner), bassist Danny Miranda (Queen, Blue \u00d6yster Cult), and Jack Daley (Lenny Kravitz, Little Steven and the Disciples) as well as keyboardist Peter Keys (Lynyrd Skynyrd),\u00a0Trouble Is Good\u00a0<\/em>is much more than just a platform for Lopez to show off his impressive chops. The songs, most of which were written either by Lopez or by the album\u2019s producer Joey Sykes, offer both memorable hooks and surprising twists and turns. Lyrically, the album reflect on everything that\u2019s gone on in the world the past few years as well as painting pictures of intense emotional inner turmoil as heard on one of Trouble\u2019s stand out tracks, \u201cUncivil War,\u201d which finds Lopez trying to find a peaceful resolution to a conflict-scarred relationship.
