Podcast appearances and mentions of Rachel Bolan

Rachel Bolan sits down with Eddie Trunk at the Jersey Shore to dive into his debut solo album, Gargoyles of the Garden State. The two share stories about growing up in New Jersey, from winning records on the boardwalk to sneaking into bars underage. Rachel opens up about the creative process behind the album, working with producer Nick Raskulinecz, and featuring guests like Corey Taylor, Nuno Bettencourt, and Danko Jones. They also discuss the ongoing search for Skid Row's next singer, reflect on the band's 35-year legacy since Slave to the Grind, and touch on underappreciated albums like Thickskin. After that, Phil Collen from Def Leppard sits down with Eddie to reflect on what he considers two of the best shows in the band's 44-year career during their Vegas residency. Phil opens up about Joe Elliott's three-hour vocal warmups, the band's renewed chemistry, and why they're still getting better after all these years. The conversation shifts to Man Raze, Phil's power trio with Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook and Simon Laffy, as they release a comprehensive box set called Lock, Stock and Barrel. Phil also reveals he's been working with legendary producer Mutt Lange again on a Crossbone Skully track, discusses Delta Deep, and shares his thoughts on potentially playing the Sphere.  Catch Eddie Trunk every M-F from 3:00-5:00pm ET on Trunk Nation on SiriusXM Faction Talk Channel 103.And don't forget to follow Eddie on X, Instagram & TikTok!Follow the link to get your free 3-month trial of SiriusXM: http://siriusxm.com/eddietrunk Find all episodes of Trunk Nation: https://siriusxm.com/trunknation Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

On this episode of Metal Mayhem ROC, Metal Walt sits down with two guests from very different worlds who have each built careers by connecting with audiences in their own unique way. First, Skid Row bassist Rachel Bolan joins the show to discuss Garden State Gargoyle, his first-ever solo album. Rachel talks about returning to New Jersey, working with producer Nick Raskulinecz, collaborating with friends including Corey Taylor, Nuno Bettencourt, Snake Sabo and Scotti Hill, and the creative freedom that came with stepping outside the Skid Row framework. Then comedian Marcus Monroe stops by to discuss the viral New York City subway videos that helped launch his national touring career. Marcus shares stories from the subway, the creative process behind his characters and costumes, audience reactions, music-inspired comedy, and the similarities between life as a touring comedian and life on the road in a rock band. Two conversations. Two different creative paths. One entertaining episode of Metal Mayhem ROC.

Interview by Kris PetersGargoyle of the Garden State, the highly anticipated debut solo album from Skid Row co-founder and bassist Rachel Bolan, releases on 12 June 2026 via earMUSIC. Stepping into the spotlight under the moniker BOLAN, this record marks a monumental milestone in the musician's four-decade career. Driven by a desire to craft something entirely his own, Bolan handles the vast majority of the recording duties himself, taking over lead vocals, bass, and most of the guitar tracks.Rooted deeply in the grit, attitude, and storytelling traditions of his New Jersey upbringing, the album is a high-octane sonic journey. Musically, it breaks away from standard hair metal conventions, leaning instead into a raw, hook-driven fusion of punk rock energy and melodic sensibilities. Bolan weaves a lifetime of diverse influences into the tracklist, drawing inspiration from Britpop, glam, new wave, and 1980s John Hughes cinema, even incorporating a sitar on the distinctly pop-punk track Memory.Though it is a solo venture, Bolan shares the experience with an impressive, star-studded lineup of close friends and peers. Listeners can expect guest appearances from legendary artists like Corey Taylor (Slipknot), Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme), Steve Conte, and Damon Johnson. Furthermore, Bolan's Skid Row family - including Scotti Hill, Dave "Snake" Sabo, and drummer Rob Hammersmith - lend their talents to various tracks. Ultimately, Gargoyle of the Garden State serves as an uncompromising, honest reflection of Bolan's true musical identity, balancing serious, reflective songwriting with an undeniable, upbeat rock-and-roll party atmosphere.HEAVY sat down with Bolan to find out more, asking him to describe what he was going for musically with the album."I was just going for a raw feel," he explained. "This record sums up me and what's going on in my head, you know, and it was fun to play guitar. I played all the rhythms and the bass, did most of the singing and then had a whole bunch of friends come in and contribute, which meant the world to me."We ask why now, after more than 40 years in music, is the right time to make a solo album."You know, I didn't find the time. The time kind of found me," he smiled. "We had downtime with Skid Row while we were searching for a vocalist and I had a bunch of songs. I kept writing through the whole process and it was more it's not now or never, but now would be a good time (laughs)."In the full interview, Rachel speaks more about Gargoyle of the Garden State and the songs on it, reflecting on the two singles released to date and if they are a good sonic representation of the album as a whole. We talked about lead track Anything But You and why it was chosen as first introduction to his solo work, plus the influence New Jersey and its way of life had on the album.We talked more about the guest artists and why they were chosen, having his Skid Row bandmates on there and why, the title and where it comes from, playing these songs live and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Rachel Bolan from Skid Row is on Celebrity Jobber with Jeff Zito this week. What type of work would Rachel be doing if not for being the main songwriter and bassist for Skid Row? Many celebrities will tell you that if not for that one lucky break or meeting, they would have been working as a cashier at an Amish Market in Tribeca, like Cardi B, or at Dunkin' Donuts, like Madonna. In other words, they may have been just a jobber.

Wow! For a non-award-winning podcast, I get some cool guests!Gene Simmons was in Detroit for the grand opening of the Rock & Brews in Royal Oak. We discuss that, look back on KISS putting their make-up back on and playing Tiger Stadium 30 years ago this coming June, and some questions from local Detroit icons. Rachel Bolan from Skid Row drops a solo album in June. There are lots of rocking guests on it. Rachel tells me about that, the search for the next singer of Skid Row, some KISS memories, and more BS from the rock world. Johnny Franck, the brains behind Bilmuri, rounds out the podcast. He's a huge Ohio State guy, so of course, I had to bust his chops about the Michigan Wolverines winning the national championship. Speaking of collabs, there are plenty on his new record. We discuss that, and more. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, Skid Row bassist and songwriter Rachel Bolan tells the story behind the band's 1989 smash hit, “I Remember You.” He traces the song back to its humble beginnings, written in the “Green Room” at his parents' house, and talks about channeling young love, late-night drives, and summer nostalgia into lyrics that still hit decades later. Produced by the legendary Michael Wagener, the song keeps listeners engaged throughout its five-plus-minute runtime, so much so that a radio edit never even existed. Tune in for a fun conversation about a song that continues to endure today, as evidenced by its inclusion in one of 2025's biggest box-office hits.

When I heard that Lzzy Hale had signed on to help the Skid Row guys for 4 shows, I was stoked! I was excited for the band, excited for the people who would see her sing live, and excited for Lzzy! After the first show was in the books, I texted Skid Row bassist, Rachel Bolan and drummer, Rob Hammersmith. Both of them were giddy with how the weekend went. That's when I decided to ask Rachel if he'd come on my Talkin' Rock with Meltdown podcast to talk about it. "We had one rehearsal before the first show, and she blew us away." - Rachel Bolan Rachel told me how the ball started to roll at producer, Nick Raskulinecz's birthday party. "I was like, "Hey, man, would you want to step in and do a few shows with Skid Row?" And she, you know, after we kind of cleared out what exactly the shows were because we, you know, I think she kind of thought we were just going to jam at like the Mercy Lounge or something. But, so when we cleared that up, she said, yes. "Let me talk to my, my, team and my people and I'll have an answer for you." And the next day or a couple of days later, I was like, "Hey, man, were you serious about that?" She's like, yeah, it's a go. And we were all excited." "She unleashed that first scream, and we were all just like, whoa." - Rachel Bolan Rachel went on to say that they only rehearsed once before their first show. Lzzy said that she was holding back a little as to not blow out her voice. Then it was time to take the stage. "When we took the stage, 'Slave to the Grind", she unleashed. Unleashed that first scream. I was just like, I'm actually getting chills thinking about it right now. I was we're all just kind of looking at each other like, whoa" He couldn't heap enough praise on the Halestorm front woman. "You know, when someone is great at what they do, people appreciate it. They appreciated Lzzy because she is great. She's just freaking great!" He said the energy on stage was off the charts. "And you could you could feel the energy on stage. And, a few of my friends that said I've never seen you smile so much. You're always like the punk rock don't smile, guy. You know, like you're laughing up there, you're smiling and you're interacting, you know? So it was really cool, man. And we got two more. And I just feel like that's like another nine days and I'm like, climbing wall of, like, what do you know?" The other two shows he's referring to are in Reno, Nevada, and Sacramento, California. "Lzzy Hale is one of the best vocalists on the planet." - Rachel Bolan When I commented that Lzzy is such a badass, Rachel agreed. "You know, you just said something that is, descriptive that everyone has been saying, and that's badass. Man, it's so perfect because she is a badass. She's a beast on stage, man. She's great."

The far more censored version of the award-winning and unparalleled "A Mediocre Time with Tom and Dan." - "A Corporate Time" is a daily companion and terrestrial radio show heard nationally on iHeartRadio. It's silly.

I'd never met any of the three original members of Skid Row before I did an interview with Rachel Bolan last year, and since we've become friends. Great guys, killer band to this day! Rachel and "Snake" Sabo joined me as we talked about the past year, which found the guys adding a new singer, recording an awesome album, and hitting the road non-stop. To say it's been a whirlwind of a year would be an understatement. We talk about seeing KISS for the first time and how that concert changed Snake's life. Since I did this interview on 3/13, which is Detroit's main area code, I asked the guys what the city has meant to them. "The Motown thing had such a huge influence on my growing up" Snake told me. Are they working on new music? Yes. Rachel said they've never started writing this early after releasing new material just last fall. They talk about singer, Erik Gronwall, and his upbringing and love for classic music. I asked them about the '18 and Life' contest. They explain that, that classic song and more. If you're in the southeast Michigan area, they're playing the Motor City Casino Soundboard with Buckcherry on Wednesday, March 15th. I'll see you there! Kow Wetzel is next. Is he a country guy dipping his toes into the rock world, or the other way around? We talk about, as well as partying at Kid Rock's house in Nashville, his outlaw influences, why his music sounds like it does and lots more.  He's playing a sold-out show at the Masonic Temple in Detroit on March 25th.  -Meltdown- https://wrif.com/podcasts/talkin-rock-with-meltdown/  

Hair band Skid Row hails from Tom's River, New Jersay.  The band was formed in 1986 by bassist Rachel Boland and guitarist Dave "Snake" Sabo, and rounded out with guitarist Scotti Hill and drummer Rob Affuso.  Lead vocalist Sebastian Bach was recruited after being seen as a wedding singer at the age of 18 well before Adam Sandler would reveal this as a potential career option and path to love and fame.  Sabo was a high school friend of Jon Bon Jovi, and the two made a pact that if one was sucessful in the music business they would help the other out.  This led to Bon Jovi's manager Doc McGee seeking out Skid Row and getting them a contract with Atlantic Records in 1988.Skid Row was the band's eponymously titled debut album, and it would prove to be a huge success over time.  Though it received mixed critical reviews, the album went to number 6 on the Billboard 200 charts, and would be certified 5x platinum in 1995 by the RIAA.  The band headlined tours for Bon Jovi and Aerosmith in 1989-1990.  Bach would be the front man for the band for their first three albums until 1996, when friction between himself and Sabo led to his departure.  Skid Row is still active as of 2022, and has released six albums to date.John Lynch takes the helm on this album in his debut as a permanent member of the What the Riff crew. Youth Gone WildThis rocking anthem was the first single released from the album.  No matter what walk of life you are from, you are one of us - the youth gone wild.  Be true to yourself and not to what others expect of you.  "Hi man, there's something that you oughta know.  I tell ya Park Avenue leads to Skid Row."I Remember YouThe third single would be the one to really put Skid Row on the map.  It is a power ballad depicting a guy who can't get over a long lost love.  Bass player Rachel Bolan contributed the lyrics.  The line "love letters in the sand" was also the title of a number 1 hit from 1957 by Pat Boone.Sweet Little SisterA deeper cut that sounds a lot like Motley Crue chronicles the trouble that a boy crazy sister of a member of the band can create.  "For such a sweet little lady I would swear she's rotten to the core.  Oh yes she got her hands in the cookie jar."18 and LifeThis darker ballad tells the story of Ricky who kills someone with a gun while drunk and is sentenced to life in prison.  Dave "Snake" Sabo and Rachel Bolan wrote the song after reading a story in the local paper about an 18 year old who accidentally killed his friend with a gun he thought was unloaded.  ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Theme song from the animated series “ALF:  The Animated Series” After its "real life" series, the cat-munching alien ALF returned in animated form.  It finished its run in 1989. STAFF PICKS:Charlotte Anne by Julian Cope Bruce leads off the staff picks with a forgotten song that hit number 1 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart at the time.  This is the first single from Cope's fourth solo album "My Nation Underground," an album that Cope considers to be a poor album.  Julian Cope comes out of the Liverpool punk scene, and his solo work is a bit reminiscent of the Cure.Driven Out by The FixxRob brings us British new wave band The Fixx in a work off their fifth album.  It talks about the pillaging of the land driven by greed.  "I'm cooking with microwaves to warm up food not seen the soil - plugged into my TV, used to the lies their telling me."  It hit number 55 on the Billboard Hot 100, and number 1 on the mainstream rock charts.Funky Cold Medina by Tone Loc Wayne's staff pick was everywhere in 1989.  A funky cold medina was an aphrodisiac, and its use would get the singer into all kinds of trouble when he gives it to his dog, or to a girl who turns out to be a transvestite.  It peaked at number 3 on the charts, and if the main beat sounds familiar, it may be because it comes from "Hot Blooded" by Foreigner. Two Hearts by Phil CollinsJohn features a song Collins sang for his poorly received film "Buster."  Lamont Dozier of Motown fame wrote this song, and it was Dozier's 14th and last number 1 song.  It is about two people connected through time and space even when they are not together.   NOVELTYTRACK:Let's Put the X in Sex by KissEven rock legends put out a failure from time to time.  This could be considered one of those - you be the judge!

Lots covered in a short amount of time on this episode of Talkin' Rock.  The Smashing Pumpkins are on tour with Janes Addiction. Billy talks about what it's like to be back out and playing in front of the fans again. We talk about the upcoming three album, three rock opera ATUM records. He explains the process and vision of that project. Plus, a little wrestling talk to round it out.  The new Skid Row album drops on October 14th, so Snake was making the rounds and gave me a few minutes to talk about The Gang's All Here. I also enlisted some "fan" questions from a guy named Rachel Bolan, Rob Hammersmith and a couple other guys, Scott Ian and Frank Bello....wink, wink. Enjoy! https://smashingpumpkins.com/ https://www.skidrow.com/ https://wrif.com/podcasts/talkin-rock-with-meltdown/  

Dave “The Snake” Sabo is a guitarist, songwriter and founding member of the band Skid Row. The band was formed in 1986 with bassist/songwriter Rachel Bolan and originally called Darkness. They went on to sell millions of records and tour with Guns ‘N Roses, Motley Crue, Kiss and others. Their new record “The Gang's All Here” is a return to form and bridges the gap between the first two records. We discuss the new album and working with producer Nick Raskulinecz, plus some of the old stuff, and tons of great band trivia - much of which I don't think has ever been revealed before!
