Twin-Cities ex-pat, L.A. transplant, and Local H's album cover go-to guy in the ‘00s — Kii Arens joins us on the show this week. But as you'll hear, all is not smooth and bump-free in podcasting land. Nevertheless, we managed to talk with our ol' pal about huge boy bands in the UK, singing on KISS records, opening up for DIO as a mime, Jack The Rapper, working at Twin Tone, photo-shoots with P.J. Soles, “12 Angry Months” vs. “Heart On”, brutalism, Liza Minnelli, photo shoots with Dolly Parton, and we TRY to give ABBA the WHAT'S THE BEST?!? treatment.

Today I sit down with Artist, Director, Kii Arens. This man got his start in the art world back in 1994 working for Michael Lang on Woodstock 94 and his whole world changed. You may of seen his videos he's directed for Glen Campbell, Ringo Starr and DEVO or some of his amazing Hollywood Bowl Rock Posters. Tune in and hear Kii's story and take the trip into The Church Of Color. Thanks for supporting The Grail Subscribe and leave a Review. DDR

Outlaw Country Singer-Songwriter Beau Nair Gets BEAUDACIOUS as we speak with Beau about his sophomore album BEAUDACIOUS. After years on the road crisscrossing the United States playing Honky Tonks, saloons, pool halls, and trailer parks alike, prolific outlaw country singer-songwriter Beau Nair recently released his debut album Truth Or Nair and is following up with his sophomore album BEAUDACIOUS. This new album follows the success of his music videos for singles “I'm So Hard” and “Funk You” off his previous album. The later of the two videos was directed by legendary director Kii Arens who has worked with artists like, Chuck Berry, AC/DC, Paul McCartney and more! Now Beau is ready to release more new music to his adoring fans with his latest release BEAUDACIOUS. This is the second album release from Beau in the last couple months with plans to release an album a month into the new year.  Beau Nair is not your run of the mill Country artist. At an early age he mastered the bass guitar and decided that he was going to bring something to country music that it had always sorely lacked: FUNK. In marrying the two genres,Beau Nair created Funktry, a style to unify his sweet melodies and saucy lyrics with a groove so deep it'll leave marks on your sphincter. No better is that uniquely Beau Nair Funktry heard than on his debut album Truth Or Nair as well as his latest release BEAUDACIOUS.
