Kansas City quartet The Leo Project went from singer/gui­tarist Tyler Lyon’s hard rock side project to one of those regional groups destined for bigger things. The fact that they’ve opened for metal/ hard rock heavyweights like Slipknot, Breaking Benjamin and Shinedown sure helps.

The band channels hard and heavy groups with a knack for melody and harmony, like Sevendust and Staind.

“I think you listen to our songs... it really has an edge to it but it’s got this beauti­ful side to it that I just enjoy about music itself,” Lyons says. The Leo Project per­forms with Changing Faith and Sinfrastructure at 9 p.m. Aug. 23 at Cagney’s. Cover is $5.
