Dan Spitz and his wife Candi have identical twins with autism and are vocal advocates about the cause and taking the power of music to now help educate awareness on a global level as never before.

DAN SPITZ:

Dan Spitz was on of the co-founders and lead guitarist of the legendary band ANTHRAX, a band now included in the “Big 4” (Metallica, Anthrax, Megadeth and Slayer) who single handed changed the face of Heavy Metal Music by breaking down many barriers once never allowed. Dan Spitz has crossed the globe on more than fifty arena tours, spanning 32 countries on five continents, released twenty or so platinum selling studio albums, platinum videos, gold and platinum singles, cracked billboard’s Top Ten, an actor on television shows such as “Married with Children”, wrote platinum songs for movie soundtracks for Adam Sandler, Arnold Schwarzenegger etc. He played in Broadway musicals and has left an indelible mark on the music industry.

ANTHRAX was the first band to mix hip hop and heavy metal with the legendary collaboration of their track “Bring The Noise2 as well as the first sold out Hip Hop/Heavy Metal-Arena World Tour featuring Public Enemy and Anthrax, the first Heavy Metal Band to record their own platinum selling Hip Hop Song “I’m The Man” and so much more.

Now this legendary guitarist (Spitz) has returned to music after his long hiatus in Switzerland to become a master matchmaker of the world’s most complicated mechanical wristwatches to once again pave new ground for a great cause and set new trends.

RED LAMB AND INTO THE FUTURE:

Red Lamb’s second video for the song “Puzzle Box” is a song with lyrics co-written by Mustaine And Spitz, all music written by Spitz and the entire CD co-produced by Dave Mustaine and Dan Spitz is gaining a foothold in the music community rather swiftly and taking a stance in the usual Heavy Metal fashion of pulling no punches and telling the truth within it’s lyrical content to the people on a global level.

In addition to these two legendary musicians of the “Big 4” (Mustaine & Spitz) they have recruited Grammy winner CHRIS VRENNA (of Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails), virtuoso DON CHAFFIN on vocals, PATRICK JOHNSON (Yngwie Malmsteen, W.A.S.P.) on drums as well as famed Grammy nominated producer JOHNNY K to mix the entire CD. Carving into something that has never been done before, Spitz and RED LAMB will bring awareness in a way on one can.
