We recently brought you our coverage of State Line Empire as they delivered a Killer set at the DNA Lounge in San Francisco opening for Black Star Riders and Skid Row. You can read our coverage of that night here: State Line Empire at DNA Lounge. We then headed down to catch them perform at the legendary Whisky a GoGo, opening once again for Skid Row. It was great to return back to the Whisky and it was another night filled with solid rockin sets! We had the chance to chat with State Line Empire before their set and are pleased to bring that interview to you here: The Whisky was packed and it ended up being a SOLD OUT show! State Line Empire were on fire as they wowed the crowd with their rock n roll.

State Line Empire ROCKS the DNA Lounge opening for Skid Row

May 14, 2014

Last night we headed to the DNA Lounge in San Francisco to see State Line Empire as they were opening for Skid Row. The place was packed and The Devil in California opened the night with a solid set and then came State Line Empire for a ROCKIN set, and up next was Black Star Riders (Thin Lizzy) and headliner Skid Row closed out the night with a bang! State Line Empire sounded great as they started off the set with a crowd favorite, Load Em Up. One thing is for sure, this band is never short on energy and they have an infectious rock vibe that spread through the crowd. If anyone arrived not knowing who State Line Empire were, they left that night being a devoted fan. They finished their set with another one of my favorites, Drive Me. Their set list for the night was: Load em up Into Pieces Your Someone Else’s Problem Now Know My Name Lock & Load Cross That Line Raise Your Sins Break Me Down [Read More]

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]

State Line Empire rocks the Whisky during NAMM week

February 3, 2014

One thing I really enjoy during NAMM week is catching an awesome concert after a long day walking the floors of the Anaheim Convention Center. During our NAMM week, we had long days and then even longer nights. On Saturday night, right after NAMM closed, we headed down to Hollywood. We got there in time so we could catch our friends in State Line Empire perform. State Line Empire were playing at the Whisky-A-GoGo for one of their 50th Anniversary shows along with Fault Line, Jetboy and Faster Pussycat. Well, State Line Empire definitely put on a great show that night and even played some of their new songs, especially my favorite; “Raise Your Sins”. Rockin Ryan was running around photographing the night and he even ran it Jinxx of Black Veil Brides who came out for the show. Ryan asked Jinxx after State Line Empire‘s set about the night and he shared with Ryan how much he loves the Whisky and it’s atmosphere and also how good State Line Empire’s set was! Of course, [Read More]
