  • LES - Ep 143 - Abandon Alien
    Oct 30 2024
    On this episode I sit down with Dan and Chris with Abandon Alien. Come join us at the Aloha Backyard as we talk about the start of the band in the time of the Pandemic, the current album, and new album in the works. Let's Talk About Music! Prepare to be captivated by Abandon Alien, an electrifying alt-rock band that seamlessly blends the angsty guitar-driven anthems of 90's grunge with an audacious and innovative twist. Hailing from the heart of Oklahoma City, the band was formed by the talented Dan Bollman, former front man of the renowned Happy Tuesday. Abandon Alien fearlessly confronts the despair of our contemporary world head-on, fearlessly delving into the depths of mental illness and isolation with lyrics that resonate with audiences on a profound level. Their music serves as a vessel for catharsis, illuminating even life's darkest moments with a flicker of hope and understanding.. Get ready to embark on a musical journey like no other as Abandon Alien prepares to unleash their latest creations upon the world. Stay tuned for their forthcoming music, poised to push the boundaries of the alt-rock genre and leave an indelible mark on the music scene.

  • LES - EP - 141- Irian Darkwood
    Oct 9 2024

    On this weeks Episode I do a remote interview with Irian Darkwood. We go over Canada live music scene , shows, working with a team, and the importance of having Management in your music career. Irian Darkwood is a hard rock/metal singer and entertainer from Nova Scotia, Canada, pouring my soul into my music to inspire others. Songs on this Episode: Greensleeves: You know how women always talk about all of these creepy experiences they have on the internet? Well, I wrote Greensleeves to address that issue. The song itself is a take on interactions I personally have had experience with. While I make fun of the situations, the reality is, that sometimes it’s really very annoying and sometimes scary on the internet when things like this happen. I wanted Greensleeves to be something people could have fun with, laugh at, and identify with, too kind if bring awareness to the issue. -- Irian Darkwood Let's Talk about music!

    On this Episode I remote-interviewed Zimmeroo's Vocialist, Dalyn Rae and Basses, Lani Frost.

    Zimmeroo is an Alternative Rock band based out of NE Oklahoma. The band plays a variety of music styles from Alternative Rock, Classic Rock, Country, and Pop-Punk. The band is made up of Cody Frost on lead guitar, keyboard, and vocals; Dalyn Rae on rhythm guitar, keyboard, mandolin, banjo, and lead vocals; Lani Frost on bass and vocals; and Austin Lucky on drums. The band was formed in May of 2021 and has been turning heads and gaining attention since. After being noticed by Brenda Cline with Workhorse 615 from Nashville, the band began an Artist Development program with her company. Brenda's extensive knowledge of the music industry has helped ensure that the band got started on the right track.
