February 8, 2015

One of the great things about getting out to NAMM in addition to checking out all the amazing new instruments, is running into exciting new bands. This time we had the pleasure of meeting The Sex Tape Scandal from Southern California. They are four bad ass rockers who are making a statement with their signature style blending 80’s glam, metal, classic hard rock and modern hard core = Glamcore. It is a great fresh new sound that will bite you and have you hooked from the start. Their infectious energy and signature sound will keep you coming back for more! We had the chance to briefly chat with them at NAMM 2015 and are pleased to bring you that interview here: We got their new EP, Pretty Ugly and it has since become a regular on our daily playlist.

Interview with NiteRain on the Sunset Strip during their debut trip to America

January 31, 2015

It was in 2013 when we first introduced you to NiteRain as one of Tuesdays Travels features. Here is an excerpt from that post: “This week, I have incredible ’80s inspired rock band from Oslo, Norway as our Tuesdays Travels Pick. They are NiteRain and they have an amazing sound. Their music reminds me of catching early Motley Crue out on the Sunset Strip in the ’80s. Early Vince Neil style vocals, Kick ass guitar riffs, slamming bass and energetic drums. Together you have the intense rock n roll of NiteRain.” NiteRain is Adrien Persen on Guitar, Sebastian Tvedtnaes on Vocals, Morten Garberg on Drums and Frank Karlsen on Bass. They have been known to have explosive stage presence and deliver high velocity sleaze rock. These guys are definitely in the running to take over the glam sleaze rock scene!
