Weather McNabb recently released a 5-song EP titled 'Cubicle Zombie.' It is the culmination of years of struggling with the daily workplace grind, the challenges women face in that realm and in the world as a whole. We fell in love with Weather's voice on this record, so naturally we had to share a track with our listeners. This particular track, 'War Paint,' not only showcases how strong Weather's vocal abilities are...but you can also hear a strong likeness with Shirley Manson, Fiona Apple, and killer drum beats that remind us of Adam Ant in his hey day. Be sure to check out Weather McNabb at the link below. https://soundcloud.com/user-75280168

"GIGOLOS" star Nick Hawk is a man of many talents (no pun intended). With the hugely successful Showtime series having recently launched it's sixth season, Nick has had the opportunity to showcase his artistic side as a painter and rapper on the show, and now he is adding his skills as a wrestler this season as well. If that wasn't enough, he explores his love of music even further with the recording of his first country track 'Everybody's Got A Lil' Country In 'Em. Clearly, there are no limits to what Mr. Hawk can do. I had the pleasure of speaking with Nick recently about his Wisconsin roots, studying acting, the move into his companion career and his hit show, music and more.

Dave Scott is an extraordinarily talented guitarist who was one of the founding members of TUFF LUCK, and 80's hard rock/metal band that was on the cusp of major industry success. The story of why the band never fully crossed over into stardom is the subject of a critically acclaimed documentary by the same name, and Andrew Klein did an amazing job of telling the story of Tuff Luck. You can read our review of the movie here: http://www.onrequestmag.com/#!Tuff-Luck-So-Much-More-Than-A-Rockumentary/c1e6m/55e16baa0cf2c1d1fd638fde I had the pleasure of speaking with Tuff Luck guitarist Dave Scott above the movie, and we also talked about where his career is headed next. https://www.facebook.com/musicbydavescott http://www.musicbydavescott.com/

If you're a rock fan, and you're anything like me, a talented guitarist that just sets a track on fire is the Holy Grail. Give me the days of scorching riffs, long guitar solos and the like and I'm a happy camper. Some years back I was introduced to a phenomenal rock band by the name of Fosterchild. They had that great classic rock feel with some modern rock thrown in, and yes......they had a killer guitarist by the name of Brian Quinn. As time has gone on the members of Fosterchild have moved on to other projects, but I have always kept an eye on Brian's career and as it turns out there was good reason to. It was recently announced that Brian is joining not one, but two great bands. He has been named a member of Candlebox as well as Le Projet, a new super project involving members of Candlebox, Sevendust and The Infinite Staircase. It was great to see Brian's name associated with these two bands, and I had the pleasure of speaking with him this past week about everything coming up for both projects. https://www.facebook.com/candlebox https://www.facebook.com/leprojetofficial

Kaitlyn Dias is a young, very talented actress that we had the pleasure of speaking with recently. She is a relative newcomer to voice acting, but her debut character is one that will leave a definite impression with moviegoers everywhere.....and leave us reaching for far too many tissues. Kaitlyn is voicing the main character of Riley in Disney/PIXAR'S new movie, 'Inside Out' which hits theaters on June 19, 2015. Check out our interview with Kaitlyn here, and be sure to keep your eyes and ears open for what is sure to be more memorable performances from this talented actress.

Veteran voice actress Lori Alan has provided audiences with some of the most memorable character voices of our time. If you were a fan of Diane Simmons from Family Guy (RIP), or the delightful Pearl The Whale from Spongebob Squarepants then you have been a fan of Lori Alan. Lori is lending her voice to Disney/PIXAR's new movie, 'Inside Out' which premieres on June 19, 2015. In our interview Lori gives us some great insight into the story that drives this heartwarming movie.

When we last spoke with acclaimed producer/director M. Night Shyamalan about FOX's fascinating new series 'Wayward Pines,' it was just prior to the premiere episode and we already knew there was going to be a major reveal coming for episode five. Now that "The Truth" episode has aired, M. Night was gracious enough to sit down and talk with the press again about the ramifications of this big reveal and what's to come in the upcoming episodes....or at least what he was able to talk about. As always, it was a great chat with Mr. Shyamalan, and fans of the series will want to hear every word. * To clarify, this was a conference call interview with several members of the media on the line from different media outlets. Our two questions were asked nearer to the end of the call beginning at 21:25. Thank you to the other press members for their insightful questions.

Rock music just got a much needed infusion this week with the release of Lotus Crush's sophomore album, 'Rabbit Hole.' Lead vocalist Terry McDermott (formerly of Driveblind and The Voice, Season 3 runner up) really got to stretch his legs on this album and along with Scott Mercado and Peter Klett of Candlebox, Island Styles and Mark Mattrey Lotus Crush has delivered a stellar rock record. I had the pleasure of interviewing Terry this week about the making of the record, the beginning of Lotus Crush, his journey on The Voice and more. You can download the interview here, and be sure to check out Lotus Crush on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/lotuscrushmusic Purchase 'Rabbit Hole' on iTunes now! https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/rabbit-hole-edit/id986198005

We had the sincere pleasure of talking with Matt Walst from THREE DAYS GRACE earlier this week about their brand new album 'Human,' which was released on 3/31/15. The record is already scoring big with fans and on alternative rock radio, charts, etc. No big surprise here. We talked with Matt about the album, kicking off their US tour, and stepping into the lead spot in an already tremendously popular band. www.threedaysgrace.com https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/human/id967339615

It's been a few years since we've had the opportunity to sit down with John O'Callaghan from The Maine. The band's fans received good news recently when they announced the official release date of their upcoming album 'American Candy' for March 31, 2015, and as an added bonus they were treated to the first single off of the record, 'English Girls.' The new single has a very upbeat tone to it and takes us back a bit to their early years, but it has an edge to it that speaks to their maturity and some of the roads they've been down over the years. More than anything, you can hear in John's voice how content and accomplished he feels with this new album, and we had a great conversation about it. Well worth a listen. https://www.facebook.com/themaine Link for digital pre-orders of 'American Candy': https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/american-candy/id963813221?ls=1&mc_cid=56bf4dbe21&mc_eid=a3e4018479 Link for physical pre-orders of 'American Candy': http://www.wearethemaine.net/?mc_cid=56bf4dbe21&mc_eid=a3e4018479

Vocal sensation JULIET SIMMS has been a favorite of ours since she was fronting The Automatic Loveletter, though many were first introduced to her through her time on The Voice. A lot has happened in her career throughout the years but one thing is for sure.....she's an incredible talent. We were very excited to learn of her recent EP release, 'All Or Nothing.' She really gets to stretch her vocal chops on this record, and we love each and every track. She took time recently to have a long chat with us about the record, her time on The Voice, the music industry as a whole and more. https://www.facebook.com/JulietSimms https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/all-or-nothing-ep/id960053844
