21 JUN 2024 · Myles Kennedy is the lead singer of the band Alter Bridge, he is also the lead singer of Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators. That much you should know, but Myles is also an accomplished solo artist and on the best vocalists in rock, plus one of the hardest working and one of the nicest people I know. Last week out of nowhere Myles announced his third solo album The Art of Letting Go due out on October 11th. With that, he also released a new song called "Say What You Will. So I immediately shot off a message and asked Myles to come back and fill us all in. You can see Myles on tour this fall in Europe and this winter back state side. 

14 JUN 2024 · Islander jumped on the hard rock scene around 2014, and the band and Mikey became some of my favorites. After a couple of top 20 rock hits the road has been a bit bumpy for the band, but now they are doing it their way and are pumping out the heaviest songs of their career. With a new album on the way June 28th called Grammy Nominated which was completely fan-funded they are ready to bring their message of love to the masses. 

7 JUN 2024 · You may remember a band called Sleep Signals, if not that's OK, they broke up last year. But, lead singer Robert Cosgrove is back with a new project called Eyes Like Midnight. It's a completely different take on the kind of music Robert loves to create and with no rules in place, they are set to make their mark on the unsuspecting rock world. This band is so new they haven't even played a major concert yet. That changes at this year's Rockfest in Cadott, WI which is only 30 minutes from where Robert grew up. Yes, that means we are both Wisconsin boys, so you know I had to shed some homestate love. Don't sleep (no pun intended) on this new band. It's time for some new music discovery with Robert Cosgrove of Eyes Like Midnight. 

31 MAY 2024 · You may know Keith as the guitar player and backing singer for Breaking Benjamin. Keith is also a prolific solo artist having just released his new solo album called Infinity Now. Keith Wallen sits down for a conversation about songwriting, swinging both bands and to complain about TikTok and Spotify. Ok, we both kind of become crotchety old men with that conversation. Honestly though, we're music heads in our 40s so what would you expect? 

24 MAY 2024 · The Ghost Inside is a SoCal hardcore band who amassed a following doing what any great band does, tour your asses off. In 2015 that was put on hold when the band was involved in a bus accident that caused serious injuries for some in the band and killed their bus driver. Then in 2020, they were back after years of healing only to be stuck because of the Pandemic. Now in 2024 they just put out what might be their best album Searching For Solace featuring their first true radio hit "Wash it Away." I'm stoked to welcome lead singer Jonathan Vigil to the Rockcast. 

17 MAY 2024 · This conversation with the Nashville songwriter turned hard rocker Tim Montana took place backstage at the Epic Event Center on May 8th before Tim opened up for the band Saint Asonia on a one-off show to get ready for some big festivals he's been playing. Tim's story is one big middle finger to the man and about that country-rock thing? Yeah, he's been a hard rocker the whole time. 

10 MAY 2024 · P.O.D. jumped into the rap-metal/hardcore scene at about the same time Rage Against the Machine did, but adding their own influences of hip-hop, reggae, and Latin beats to their brand of hardcore immediately set them apart from the pack in the '90s. During the nu-metal explosion, they had number-one songs and platinum-selling albums. Now, it's been over 30 years and P.O.D. may have just put out one of their heaviest and well-put-together albums yet in Veritas. They are still out there grinding and joining us from the road is lead singer Sonny Sandoval. 

3 MAY 2024 · The band Nothing More ten years ago exploded on the modern rock world with their self-titled album. Since then they have put out some of their best work and it looks like that journey will continue with their new album Carnal due out on June 28th. Joining from their current tour with Wage War we get into the details of the songs and the raw emotion that has inspired this new album. 

26 APR 2024 · You know Kerry King as the legendary guitarist of what some would say are the ultimate heavy metal band, Slayer. Well a few years ago Slayer announced their retirement, they were hanging up the riffs for good. So Kerry being Kerry King took some songs he had already been working on and decided to put out a solo record. He's got a great lineup of musicians with him including Paul Bostaph of Slayer, Phil Demmel formerly of Machine Head, Kyle Sanders from Hellyeah and singing is Mark Osegueda of Death Angel. That reads like a supergroup of metal lineup, but here they are playing with Kerry King. The finished product is the album From Hell I Rise due out on May 17th. Kerry sits down with me to fill us in on how this project came out of the ashes of Slayer. I should also mention that Slayer did reunite and are playing some select festivals later this year, but how that happened will have to be saved for another conversation down the line. 

19 APR 2024 · There are few voices more recognizable than that of Sebastian Bach. Back in the day Skid Row was one of the biggest bands in the world, and it's been a long time since we've heard Bach music that has the same potential as those first two Skid Row records, but here in 2024, that narrative can be changed. His new solo album called Child Within the Man comes out on May 10th and there's a great reason to be excited about it, the songs absolutely kick ass! Sebastian may have never sounded this good. I'm being dead serious about that. Listen to the tunes and then come back and listen to explain this album and share some stories too. Buckle up! It's time for Bach n' Roll!
