BODYBUILDER GOES FROM ROCK HARD TO HARD ROCK

BODYBUILDER GOES FROM ROCK HARD TO HARD ROCK

BALTIMORE, Maryland (Wireless Flash) – Arnold Schwarzenegger proved musclemen can act and now a Baltimore bodybuilder wants to prove they can sing. 29-year-old Kevin Levrone – who was the runner-up in Mr. Olympia 2000 – hopes to go from being rock hard to hard rock as the lead singer for a new band called Fulblown. Levrone says bodybuilding gave him the confidence to get onstage and sing and now the “politics” of the sport are giving him plenty of inspiration for his angry lyrics. Although musclemen haven’t had a weighty presence on the pop charts stateside, Fulblown is currently rising on the European charts with a tune called “Dossvidania.” Levrone says the song was inspired by the time the Russian mafia smuggled him into Moscow.
