Jupiter Cyclops was formed in 2019 when scene veteran and singer Aaron Peltz relocated from Southern California to the Phoenix, Arizona desert. What started as a two-piece doom project quickly metamorphosized into a 4-piece high octane hard rock assault courtesy of guitarist Dustin Lyon’s face-melting riffs and solos and Jake Melius bringing the low-end thunder on bass. The lineup was finally complete with the addition of Kyle Eades on the drums.

Jupiter Cyclops has been tearing up stages in the Southwest and is ready to bring their brand of rock n’ roll to the masses. In this debut episode of Street Patrol, where we feature newer bands that we feel need to be heard, we talk with Dustin Lyons and Jake Melius to learn more about this hot, exciting band and their new album “Age of the UFOnaut”!
