August 13, 2013

John Waite We had the chance to interview one of my favorite singer/songwriter, musician of all time…. The legendary John Waite. I can’t remember when I first heard John, it had to have been as I stole my brother’s old Baby’s record and I think it was Broken Heart. I don’t think I ever gave him back the record! I was hooked. I continued to listen to The Babys, John’s extensive and successful solo albums and was a big fan of Bad English. A couple years ago, we had the opportunity to check out John as he played in support of his Rough and Tumble CD which I love. I am pleased to tell you that John has just released a LIVE CD; LIVE ALL ACCESS on his own label, No Brakes. It truly has exceptional sound quality and John again delivers a powerful CD that will have you playing it from start to finish.

Interview with your new favorite metal band, Righteous Vendetta!

Check them out here on their latest video for their new single The Fire Inside: What did you think of that double bass? Kick ass right??? Ya, I thought so! and those vocals, HOLY SHIT!

July 29, 2013

Iconic artist and Grammy winning guitarist SLASH is set to release on October 4th, a soundtrack album for his first co-produced horror film by his production company SLASHER FILMS, Nothing Left to Fear. The original motion picture soundtrack has been written and produced by SLASH and Nick O’Toole. In addition to film score it will include the original song, “Nothing Left to Fear” that features vocalist Myles Kennedy. “It’s been equally intriguing for me to be involved with producing, writing and performing the music in NOTHING LEFT TO FEAR. Film scoring prompts me to engage different styles of writing and guitar playing that don’t always present themselves when I make Rock n Roll records.” –SLASH Fans of SLASH will be able to get the album exclusively through PledgeMusic/Slash as well as other perks like interviews, video clips, signed vinyls, signed posters, merchandise and much more. The movie will be released in select theaters on October 4th as well as Blue-Ray, DVD and On-Demand. You can watch a video by SLASH where he talks more about this [Read More]
