Biography

Everything started in the basement of the Lizzi brothers, natives of La Louvière, Belgium. After a jam session where Jeff played a few riffs that had been bouncing around in his head, they decided to form a band. While their beginnings were fairly classic, they soon began experimenting with different genres and searching for the right musicians, exploring jazzy and funky styles that, in the end, didn’t quite fit them.

Once they found their true sound, the four members dove headfirst into a creative whirlwind, bursting with ideas and a drive that pushed them to go further and truly live their passion. All it took was letting their personalities shine, blending psychedelic rock with a seventies vibe, topped off with a punk attitude and a touch of soul. It was an explosion of musical styles from a group that claims not to take themselves too seriously but are dead serious about their music. Thoughtful? Absolutely. Bold? Even more so. And it’s thanks to this mix of qualities and raw energy that things really took off: after just a handful of rehearsals, the band recorded their first album, “Time Runs Away,” and hit the road, performing in the UK, France, and Belgium. The experience brought them closer together and marked a key turning point in their journey.

Dr Voy didn’t stop there, it would have been too easy. They had the idea to record a track with Jamaican singer Winston McAnuff, who has since become a close friend and features on their second album. The collaboration was a real success, and in 2009, the band released their second album, “Kill the Angel,” followed by “That’s All Fake,” all while playing numerous shows throughout the year.

Their real breakthrough came with the 2015 album “Crazy,” which also saw the arrival of new drummer and bassist, Reg and Rod. It was just the rhythm section they’d been missing. Described by Marc Ysaye as “classic rock post-modern,” this record is their boldest and most rock’n’roll yet. Recognized by the “Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles Programme Rock” since June 2015, Dr Voy finally found their place in the rock scene.

In 2018, they dropped the explosive album “Apocalyptic Bombs.” The band delivered even more polished tracks, pushing their rock’n’roll edge, adding a bluesy twist, and featuring women vocals that brought an extra touch of charm. Winston McAnuff returned for another collaboration on “She Calls me Candy Boy,” and the band finally released a long-awaited acoustic track for their fans.

With five self-produced albums under their belt, Dr Voy has developed a mature, authentic sound. Their music comes straight from the gut, their spontaneity is second nature, and sharing it with their audience is simply instinctive. Maybe that’s why Dr Voy keeps surprising listeners with every new release.

In 2025, Adrien takes over on bass from Rod. The band continues their journey, releasing two singles “Mechanic River” and “Reversible” and kicking off a new creative chapter : regularly releasing singles in anticipation of a future vinyl album.
