Interview with William Ryan Key (Yellowcard)

October 16, 2019 04:07 - 27 minutes - 25.2 MB

We had the honor of interviewing William Ryan Key of Yellowcard on his solo tour at the Roxy! "Sometimes a step sideways is the best progression forward. After the breakup of Yellowcard in Spring 2017, vocalist/guitarist William Ryan Key did just that with his solo debut EP, THIRTEEN which will be released on May 25, 2018 via The Lone Tree Recordings. Both a sonic redirection and a rediscovering of his muse, THIRTEEN finds Ryan in a brand new headspace with a sound that moves away from the...

We absolutely loved chatting with Anna Clendening at the Hard Rock Hotel San Diego! We talk tears, affairs, therapy, makeup, OCD, divorce, backpack leashes, Coke Zero Vanilla, and so much more! Come laugh and cry with us. "From the moment pop singer-songwriter Anna Clendening appeared on the scene, her music hit home with thousands—and very quickly, millions—of people. Granted, that moment came when she least expected it: One night about five years ago, at home in Chapel Hill, North Caroli...

Interview with Max Frost

October 02, 2019 03:06 - 42 minutes - 38.8 MB

We had the opportunity to interview Max Frost! "It began as an experiment. Music had always been the focus of my short, 17­ year ­old, guitar ­playing life in Austin, Texas. I was obsessed with The Beatles, Hendrix, Sinatra, and Sam Cooke. The Blues were my foundation. I hung with a crowd of young musicians who shared my love of the classics. We listened to vinyl. We played in bands. My safe, little vintage ­rock world was turned on its head when underground hip­hop came knocking at my d...

We had the opportunity to interview Billy Raffoul at the Hard Rock Hotel San Diego! "Since delivering his darkly thrilling debut single “Driver” in 2017, Billy Raffoul has redefined the limits of the classic singer/songwriter sensibility.

But at the heart of his music is Raffoul’s unforgettable voic...

We had the opportunity to interview The Shelters! The Shelters fan a fresh flame with classic fuel on their 2019 second full-length, Jupiter Sidecar [Warner Records].

Interview with The Beaches

August 22, 2019 17:03 - 25 minutes - 23.6 MB

We had the opportunity to interview The Beaches! "There has always been an undeniable, almost preternatural connection between The Beaches and music. Each member of the Toronto garage rock group remembers being drawn to their instrument casually until developing a specific, important need to create and perform their own work. Miller sisters Jordan and Kylie remember picking up the guitar as young as six years old, eventually going to practices together. Jordan admits that Sheryl Crow’s app...

We had the opportunity to interview Taylor UPSAHL. Indie-Pop sensation UPSAHL has every right to celebrate. Last year, she released her first proper single, “Can You Hear Me Now,” a bouncy, rhythmic, and poignant track that set the internet positively abuzz. “It’s a message to someone on the other end of a failing relationship,” UPSAHL says of the song. “It’s the kind of relationship that has been dysfunctional for a long period of time to the point where one person decides it isn’t worth ...
