Interview with Delta Rose after their stellar performance at the Troubadour

February 21, 2014

Delta Rose! That is the band that I am hoping that you already know by now. We featured them last year during our Golden Gods Awards Coverage, Warped Tour Featured band as well as them being our Day 5 of our 12 Days of Bands You Have to Know. So I am hoping you have been paying close attention and are already familiar with these bad ass rockers… Delta Rose! These guys not only bring the old school rock and roll back to life with their young vibrant personalities but are also one of the hardest working bands on the scene. They are not only busy playing shows all over Southern California but we even caught them performing at the Gibson booth during NAMM 2014. They are an awesome band that you can’t help but fall in love with them. Last weekend, we headed down to see Delta Rose perform at Lara Gladstone’s Gutter n Grind event at the Troubadour. This would be the first time we were able to catch a full set from one of our [Read More]

NiteRain release new single “The Threat” from upcoming album

February 21, 2014

Last year we introduced you to NiteRain as one of Tuesdays Travels. 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! They have had great success in touring with L.A. Guns across Europe and we hope they come out here to the US soon. Their glam infused rock is just as contagious as their fierce energy and is something we need. You [Read More]

Siren Sycho and Death Koolaid release new video for P.P.K.R.

February 12, 2014

Just last year, we brought you the news of Siren Sycho partying ways with Death Makes Pretty and an interview where Siren discussed her passion for music. Well, Siren has been busy as the new vocalist for Punk Metal band, Death Koolaid. Death Koolaid just released their video for their song, P.P.K.R. and it features Siren Sycho. Check it out here: Also you can check out a repost of our interview with Siren from last year. *************************** Hey everyone it is Rockin Ryan here and I am proud to bring you another interview. This time I have a special one. Recently we heard the news of Siren Sycho parting ways with Death Makes Pretty due to differences between the needs and direction of the band and Siren. Siren is definitely still continuing on and I am sure in no time she will find a perfect fit with a new band. One thing is for sure, Siren delivers 100% INTENSITY with whatever she is doing. If a band is looking for an over the top frontman(woman) who [Read More]

Check out our chat with the rockin girls of Bloody Mary at NAMM 2014!

February 6, 2014

One thing that I really love about attending NAMM is finding a lot of great new bands. One of those bands we found this year was Bloody Mary from Chicago. This is an all girl teenage rock band that has a big sound filled with lots of talent. It is amazing to hear them and then find out they are young teens. They have a solid sound that will definitely impress you! They have been rockin the Chicago scene but are also garnering National attention with their high energy performances. So who is Bloody Mary? You have Ana Apollo on Lead Guitar/Vocals, Kat Cannons on Drums/Vocals, Rickee Divine on Guitar/Vocals and Hollie Wood on Bass/Vocals. Together these guys deliver true rock n roll sound reminiscent of the Runaways or todays’ Cheri Bomb. One of the songs I really love of theirs is Where Do We Go and you can head over to their Facebook page and take a listen here. We ran into Bloody Mary at one of the most rockin booths of NAMM, the Dean Guitars booth and [Read More]

Interview with Terese Taylor by Patrick O’Heffernan of MusicFriday Live!

February 5, 2014

Interview with Terese Taylor by Patrick O’Heffernan Terese Taylor’s music describes a personal world – or maybe series of worlds – that is dark, stark and cynical. Or perhaps, she is simply laying reality out in front of us as she sees it and letting us interpret her images through our own lens. Or maybe both at once. That is the genius of Terese Taylor, a song writer and musical artist who uses her lyrics to paint sharp, steel cut images of life that upon closer inspection can be ambiguous. The same goes for her music. Is it rock, folk, country, or punk…or something that is simply Terese Taylor, best enjoyed without analysis? Music FridayLive! interviewed Terese Taylor on 1/31/14. * * * * * * * Patrick: Welcome to Music Friday Terese: Hi Patrick. Patrick: Terese, you sent me four songs that I understand are slated for a new album to be released in April. April is only about 2 months away, so you must be closing in on having it ready. Can you gives us a [Read More]
