What is "laruso"

Laruso were an English rock band formed by Darren Smith in Sheffield in 2003. They released their debut album, Bring It On, in May 2005 on Casket Music. Their second album, A Classic Case of Cause and Effect, was released in May 2009 on Autonomy Recordings. The album was produced by the band's guitarist Carl Bown and featured a guest appearance by his uncle, pop singer Tony Christie. in April/May 2009 Laruso toured with Fightstar and In Case of Fire to promote the release of A Classic Case of Cause and Effect. They also did a Tour in August 2009 to support the album and release of the single Plain Paper Napkins. On 4 May 2010 Laruso recorded the video for new single It's not over (till we're dead) inviting fans to attend the shoot and appear in the video.

But the single is yet to surface, and nothing has been heard from the band since early 2010.

It was then later revealed that the band has been defunct since late 2010 due to vocalist Liv's sudden desire for a sex change. This caused tension between her and the rest of the band, resulting in the band splitting up.
