April 3, 2016

I love my Rock and Roll and I just can’t get enough of it these days. But what I really love is when great new bands and artists are busy at keeping the rock torch burning bright and strong.

Check out the new video from YOTAM for California Sounds

March 31, 2016

  Singer/Songerwriter YOTAM has just released a video for the title track off his new album, California Sounds. The video was Directed by: Ian Fisher, Filmed By: Kathrine Kohl & Ian Fisher, Produced By: Ian Fisher & Yotam Ben Horin.  YOTAM comments about the video, “”It was the very end of the 2 month Coast to Coast US tour, I wanted to go revisit the same hotel that the cover photo for “California Sounds” was shot in just 7 months before. Since my friends Ian and Katherine who shot the video for “Sad” live only a few blocks away, I had an idea that maybe we should just make a video of me visiting the site with my guitar, no real plan, script or story. It’s fun to see how I went from looking as I normally do on the album cover to a complete hillbilly here. It’s like two different people but I guess that’s a part of my story” Check out the video here: Yotam had quite a successful 20 years with punk band Useless [Read More]

The song is off his album California Sounds which is not only a beautiful tribute to Tony but his thank you to him. YOTAM comments, “My friend Kevin who is doing a book in tribute for Tony Sly mentioned that a friend of his Steven Guerrero would be interested in possibly doing a video for my song “Tony Sly” off of California Sounds (Hardline Entertainment). I put him in touch with label owner Ken Seaton and they both set up a 7 am shooting at 3rd Street Tattoo in Hermosa Beach which Fletcher from Pennywise is a part owner of. Luckily I was just done with a 2 month tour and in the area. I didn’t sleep much the night before. We ended up shooting a few takes and that was it. The setting, the hour and Steve’s camera action made everything seem right.I learned alot from Tony Sly over the years when my band Useless ID toured with No Use [Read More]
