1. London is an American glam rock band from Los Angeles, founded in 1978 by guitarist Lizzie Grey, Dane Rage, and Nikki Sixx. London was briefly joined by Michael White as the vocalist, who bore a resemblance, both in voice and image, to Robert Plant. After disagreements with the band, White left to focus on his own band, The White. 1984 saw the rebirth of London, although it was now a different beast. The new lineup consisted of Grey, Nigel Itson, an English vocalist named John Ward and a bassist named Donny Cameron. London, with the Playa Del Rock lineup of Nadir D'Priest, Lewis, West and Krigger, performed a reunion show at the Roxy Theatre in Hollywood, CA in early 2010.
