Punk and rock icon Kid Congo Powers opens up about staying busy with new music and collaborations and much more in this exclusive interview.
Interview by Ali WilliamsSome bands talk about changing the world. Others actually try to rewire the power source. When HEAVY's Ali Williams caught up with Lime Cordiale's Ollie Leimbach, he was literally on the floor, charging his laptop somewhere five hours north of Sydney. Very rock 'n' roll. Very Northern Rivers. Very “I may or may not be barefoot and slightly stinky.” Which, frankly, checks out. Between laughs about weather patterns and mild coastal smugness, Ollie casually dropped the fact that Lime Cordiale are putting the finishing touches on album number four . Not that they're rushing it. “We're not a three-week studio band,” he admits. This one's only taken about a year. Growth. Maturity. Slightly less agonising perfectionism. But the real headline here isn't just new music. It's Lime Green Festival, their upcoming off-grid, battery-powered, 5,000-capacity experiment-slash-party happening April 18 off the coast of Adelaide . Yes, battery powered. As in, no diesel generators chugging away backstage. As in, the band is fully prepared to risk a blackout mid-set in the name of progress. Bold. Slightly terrifying. Excellent content. The Lime Green concept was born out of a crisis of conscience. During COVID, the band were working on a farm on the Mid-North Coast, diving into regenerative agriculture and learning how to reduce their footprint. Then touring came back. Planes. Diesel buses. Global laps. Cue existential whiplash. Rather than retreat into eco-guilt or write twelve reggae protest songs (no dreadlocks involved, he promises), Lime Cordiale decided to tackle the industry from within. Their approach is refreshingly non-preachy. No finger wagging. No “stop living your life.” Just practical shifts. They've trialled biodiesel buses in Europe, slashing touring emissions by around 98 percent. They've put a dollar from every ticket toward environmental causes they genuinely connect with. In Adelaide, that means supporting awareness around the current algal bloom crisis devastating local waters . Dead fish, stinging water, beaches people can't swim in. Not exactly tourism brochure material. The Lime Green Festival, though, is the big swing. Fully off-grid. Fully battery-powered. A case study in proving that you can run a major event without defaulting to fossil fuel generators. The battery companies are confident. The production crews are cautious. Ollie seems almost excited about the possibility of chaos. “If there is a blackout halfway through, that's part of the journey,” he shrugs . That's the spirit. Punk rock, but with renewable infrastructure. The lineup includes The Dreggs alongside Adelaide locals Alexia, Pash, and a Triple J Unearthed winner . Capacity sits at 5,000, which would make it Australia's largest fully battery-powered festival to date . Casual. Beyond the headline tech flex, Lime Green will feature practical green initiatives: better waste sorting, encouragement to bring reusable bottles, conscious messaging. Not exactly radical ideas, but when you've ever seen a post-gig floor that looks like a plastic tornado hit a bar fridge, you understand why it matters. Throughout the chat, Ollie keeps circling back to one core idea: don't shame people into change. Don't demand everyone bin their petrol cars tomorrow. Replace things when they break. Upgrade when it makes sense. Let progress feel possible, not punitive. It's a refreshingly pragmatic take in a space that often devolves into moral Olympics. At the end of the day, Lime Green will still be what everyone actually shows up for: good music, a crowd, and a reason to forget your inbox for a few hours. The difference is that it might also quietly prove that the industry can do better without killing the vibe. Album number four is brewing. The future might be battery powered. And if the lights flicker mid-chorus on April 18, at least you'll know you're witnessing a social experiment in real time.

In this edition of our arts24 music show, Jennifer Ben Brahim chats with British artist Jamie Woon, who is back with new music for the first time in a decade. He emerged from London's fertile post-dubstep scene of the early 2010s with his debut album "Mirrorwriting" and his Mercury-nominated follow-up "Making Time". His lyrics are vulnerable and introspective, blending R'n'B, neo soul and electronic sounds. After a decade away from the spotlight, Jamie is back with his album "3,10, Why, When" and is heading out on a European tour.
Some thing(s) have been percolating, in the arena of being annoyed/confused or just disappointed, by many of Mr. Dylan's ways ever since I first heard listened to him as a 12 year-old in the basement of my suburban home. I finally get around -- 59 years later? -- to unpacking them and having a reckoning, of sorts, with Robert Zimmerman/Bob Dylan.

Low Stakes is what happens when two musicians get fed up with polite art and sanitized songwriting, trading it for sharp, unfiltered folk-rock that says the quiet part loud. Eric Colville and Ann Holbrook write with the lyricism of Paul Simon and John Prine, the hooks of The Byrd's or Tom Petty, and a true punk ethos. Their songs live in the friction between humor and heartbreak, absurdity and depth, grief and joy. It's the whole ridiculous mess of being human crammed into a melody. Low Stakes isn't background music; it's for people who are tired of swallowing their truth, who've laughed at funerals, raged at the news, and still somehow believe in something. Join the folk-rock music group Low Stakes and I as we talk about creating music, the songwriting process, finding creative inspiration, trusting your intuition and so much more! They even play a couple of songs live for us!

Interview by Ali WilliamsLord of the Lost are currently somewhere between frostbite and frequent flyer miles. When HEAVY's Ali Williams caught up with frontman Chris Harms, the band were enjoying an “off day” in Las Vegas, which sounds glamorous until you realise it comes after three straight weeks of snow and a delightful minus 25 degrees in Canada. Celsius, for the record. The kind of cold that makes you reconsider every life choice that led you there. The German dark rock outfit are wrapping up the North American leg of their tour before pointing themselves toward Australia for the very first time. Yes, first time. Seventeen years into their career and they've somehow never made it Down Under. Not for lack of trying either. A previous Australian run collapsed thanks to the classic rock'n'roll villain arc of a disappearing promoter and vanishing ticket money . Enter Hardline Media and Extratours, who stepped in to resurrect the tour and finally get the band on a plane for the 28-hour trek south That's commitment. Or madness. Possibly both. The Australian run kicks off in Brisbane on February 19 before heading through Melbourne, Sydney and wrapping up in Adelaide It's a tight schedule. Fly in the night before the first show, play, fly, repeat, and then straight back out again No cuddling koalas, no hunting for drop bears, no leisurely beach days. Just work, work, work. Romantic, isn't it? Musically, Lord of the Lost are in the middle of rolling out their ambitious Opus trilogy. Volumes 1 and 2 are already out in the world, with Volume 3 on the way. Two singles from the final instalment have already dropped, meaning Aussie fans will get a taste of the new material alongside the older cuts that built their reputation Harms promises a set that represents the whole journey, not just the shiny new toys. And journey is the right word. Over 17 years, the band have evolved through multiple musical styles, toured with Iron Maiden and even dipped into the Eurovision Song Contest in 2023 tghe result is a fanbase that's gloriously mixed. Older devotees have grown up with the band, while younger fans keep discovering them through playlists and, somehow, TikTok Harms jokes they're “too old for TikTok,” but the algorithm clearly disagrees. As for what Aussie audiences can expect? According to Harms (who answered in jest), “extremely boring shows” with zero effort and maximum disappointment. Given their reputation for theatrical impact and high-energy performances, we'll assume that's the driest German humour you'll hear all summer. After surviving Canadian blizzards and Vegas temptations, Lord of the Lost are trading snow boots for sunscreen and finally ticking Australia off the bucket list. Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide, prepare yourselves. Seventeen years in the making, and they're not flying 28 hours for a quiet night out.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

HEAVY's Mizzie Maxx spoke with Yellowcard violinist Sean Mackin to find out more."We were just here celebrating 20 years of Ocean Avenue, so we're going to mix up the set a little bit," Mackin began. "We have this new batch of songs from the album Better Days with Travis Barker producing, and hopefully everyone in Australia is aware of those songs and we can play a couple off of that. It's a small milestone for us, we've never had a number one song before with Better Days reaching number one on the charts in the United States."In the full interview, Sean spoke more about Yellowcard's visit to Australia, their upcoming live-show plans, and creative work around the new album Better Days. He said the Australian performances will blend Ocean Avenue anniversary material with tracks from Better Days. Sean highlighted the single Bedroom Posters, which features Joel Madden of Good Charlotte, revealing that collaboration grew out of long-standing Warped Tour relationships and a backstage conversation that led Joel to agree to contribute quickly. Conversation then turned to songwriting and production choices for Better Days, including collaborative sessions with songwriter Nick Long and producer Travis Barker, who invited the band to his studio and helped write multiple songs. He group discussed the album's emotional content, Sean's violin contributions—traced to his mother's influence—and practical advice for emerging bands to stay genuine and outwork competitors plus more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

The band Genesis is a lot of things to a lot of people. For most, the name evokes memories of the popular three-piece lineup, featuring Phil Collins on lead vocals, who peppered radio with numerous Top 40 hits and MTV with music videos like “Abacab,” “That's All,” and “Land of Confusion.” For others, they're the pinnacle of 1970s progressive rock, led by charismatic lead singer Peter Gabriel, who left the band in 1975 and refashioned himself into a pop hit machine equal to his old band, leaving his fingerprint on pop culture with hits like “Solsbury Hill,” “Shock the Monkey,” and “Sledgehammer.” What many casual listeners may not know is that the band came together while the Beatles were still in mop tops and issued their debut single in the shadow of “The Magical Mystery Tour.” In his latest article for the Strange Brew, author Scott G. Shea takes a look at the genesis of Genesis. It's Part 1 of 2.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Limberlost Release New Single "Give it to Me(Redux)"New EP Villian Due Out Later This Year! Interview with Limberlost. Steve Unger is in the band. He is formerly of metal Church and AutographExplosive. Fierce. Unapologetic. Limberlost kicks off 2026 with a re-imagined version of their 2023 only released in Europe, fan-favorite anthem "Give it to Me", transforming it into a modern rock powerhouse that hits harder than ever. Reborn from its original roots, this version fuses high-energy guitar riffs, thunderous drums, and powerhouse vocals that redefine the band's signature sound. “Give It to Me (Redux)” is a declaration of strength, passion, and pure rock 'n' roll adrenaline — a sonic punch that dares listeners to take back their Power and Claim what's theirs. With production that's both cinematic and raw, it bridges classic rock intensity with a cutting-edge alternative edge, appealing to fans of Halestorm, Evanescence, Linkin Park, and The Pretty Reckless.Lyrically, the song captures the hunger for authenticity and emotional connection in a world of noise and distraction — a cry for something real and uncompromising. Backed by their acclaimed new album Beautiful Scars, three SMR Top 50 singles, and 2 award winning videos with over a million views each, Limberlost proves once again that their fire only burns hotter with time.Turn it up, feel the pulse, and demand it all — this is “Give It to Me” like you've never heard it before.Limberlost is a powerhouse American rock band delivering a bold fusion of modern and classic rock with soaring vocals, electrifying guitar riffs, and thunderous rhythms.

His veteran stage presence and technical prowess bring a new depth to Limberlost's already dynamic sound, elevating their live performances and recording capabilities to the next level.If that's not enough the addition of Steve's son Devon Unger on Lead Guitar.

DON McLEAN MARKS THE 55TH ANNIVERSARY OF “AMERICAN PIE” AS THE SURF BALLROOM ANNOUNCES A 2027 LIFE SIZE BRONZE STATUE HONORING THE ICONIC SINGER SONGWRITERStatue will be installed at the legendary venue where Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson played their final showCLEAR LAKE, Ia. (February 3, 2026) — Fifty five years after its release, Don McLean's “American Pie” remains one of the most enduring anthems in American music — a sweeping, eight minute epic that captured a nation in transition and immortalized the phrase “the day the music died.” Today, as “American Pie” turns 55 (1971–2026), McLean is celebrating the milestone on tour while also helping propel a new chapter of preservation at the Surf Ballroom & Museum in Clear Lake, Iowa.The Surf Ballroom — the National Historic Landmark where Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson performed on February 2, 1959 as part of the Winter Dance Party tour — announced that a life size bronze statue honoring McLean will be erected on-site in 2027. The statue will stand as a permanent tribute to the songwriter whose work helped carry the story of that night into global cultural memory, bridging generations of listeners, historians and music fans.The new statue is inspired from an existing life size bronze portrait created by acclaimed sculptor Zenos Frudakis (Philadelphia). Originally completed in 1989, the portrait was featured on the cover of McLean's album ‘Classics'. Frudakis, an acclaimed portrait sculptor and lifelong friend of McLean, is known the world over for his statues of Muhammad Ali, Nina Simone, President Dwight D. Eisenhower, and many more. He is creating an entirely new statue for public display at the Surf, adding a new landmark for visitors to the historic ballroom and its adjacent museum experiences. The announcement comes on February 3 on the heels of the 2026 Winter Dance Party at the Surf — the anniversary of the 1959 plane crash that claimed the lives of Holly, Valens and Richardson — a date forever intertwined with McLean's songwriting.“The Buddy Holly Educational Foundation is thrilled that one of our most iconic ambassadors is being honored with a statue at The Surf Ballroom, the site of Buddy Holly's final performance,” said Rick French, chairman of The Buddy Holly Educational Foundation and a national trustee of the famed Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. “While American Pie was famously inspired by the plane crash that claimed the lives of Buddy, Ritchie Valens and J.P. Richardson on February 3, 1959 , it has stood for more than half a century as an anthem to the cultural shifts of our country and is as relevant today as it has ever been.”The Buddy Holly Educational Foundation (TBHEF) works to extend musical education — including songwriting, production, arranging, orchestration and performance — to new generations regardless of income or learning levels. The Foundation also supports emerging artists through mentoring and songwriting retreats, and its Ambassadors receive a replica of Buddy Holly's own Gibson J 45 to encourage new music in his memory.“To this day Don remains one of Maria Elena Holly's closest friends and she was overjoyed to learn a statue is being cast in his honor,” added Peter Bradley, Jr., vice chairman of The Buddy Holly Educational Foundation, who is working closely with McLean, his management team and Jeff Nichols at the Surf Ballroom to plan a blockbuster unveiling of the statue upon completion.First opened in 1933 (and rebuilt in 1948 after a fire), the Surf Ballroom continues to host concerts and special events year round and welcomes visitors to explore the site's museum offerings. In recent years, the Surf expanded its educational mission with new immersive experiences honoring the artists and cultural moments that shaped early rock 'n' roll — ensuring that the ‘Winter Dance Party' story is preserved not only as history, but as a living, visitable place.DON McLEAN 2026 TOUR DATES (SUBJECT TO CHANGE):Fri, Feb 06 — Lobero Theatre — Santa Barbara, Calif.Sat, Feb 07 — Saban Theatre — Beverly Hills, Calif.Fri, Mar 20 — Seminole Casino Hotel Immokalee — Immokalee, Fla.Sat, Mar 21 — Maxwell C.

Pipeman interviews Welsh metalcore band Bless Your Dead.Rising from the ashes of When We Were Wolves, the band announce their arrival with the release of their debut single “Everyone's A Target” — a no-holds-barred statement of intent from a band reborn heavier, sharper and more focused than ever.They've just announced their debut show, performing at Noizzefest in Cardiff this April.The track is due for release on 5th February and is the first single from a wave of new music lined up for 2026. Bless Your Dead are poised to make a serious impact, returning with a sound that is heavier, more refined and more confrontational than ever before.Formerly known as When We Were Wolves, the four-piece metalcore outfit have spent the past year tearing everything down and rebuilding from the ground up. The result is Bless Your Dead: a band delivering heavy riffs, crushing breakdowns and anthemic choruses, driven by a renewed sense of purpose and aggression. The band features vocalist Mitch Bock, guitarists Jay Coatsworth and Jack Adams, and drummer Kristian Eirsland “After taking a year away to write and record, it became apparent that the material we were working on was something completely different to what we'd done before — and that's when Bless Your Dead was born,” explains vocalist Mitch Bock. “Everyone's A Target” serves as the first taste of what's to come. Though it was the final video shot from an upcoming run of three singles, the band felt it was the strongest introduction to their new sound. “Being a band that mixes heavy and melodic, we felt this track was the perfect place to start,” says Mitch. “It's got riffs, a big chorus and a breakdown — everything that represents us right now. ”Lyrically, the track channels raw frustration and defiance. “It's about reaching breaking point with forced loyalty and surface-level behavior, and finally snapping back.”With a wave of new music lined up for 2026, Bless Your Dead are poised to make a serious impact, returning with a sound that is heavier, more refined and more confrontational than ever before.Click Here to Subscribe to The Adventures of Pipeman for PERKS, BONUS Content & FREE GIVEWAYS!

Pipeman interviews horror/industrial metal band Horror Scene. Our music blends aggressive metal with horror storytelling, characters, and cinematic themes. We'd love to come on your podcast to talk horror influences, creating dark characters through music, and the intersection of horror films and metal.Welcome to Your HellHorror Scene emerged from the underground of Harrisburg, PA with one mission: to turn fear into music. Formed by a group of musicians obsessed with horror cinema, psychological thrillers, serial killers and the darker edges of industrial metal and rock, the band fuses theatrical storytelling with heavy, atmospheric soundscapes. Their songs explore themes of dread, hauntings, obsession, and the monsters—real or imagined—that live inside us all.On stage, Horror Scene transforms the venue into their own chilling universe. Fog, distorted visuals, blood-red lights, and immersive sound design create a multisensory experience that blurs the line between concert and horror film. Their electrifying live shows have earned them a fiercely loyal fanbase drawn to the adrenaline, the spectacle, and the catharsis. Touring the US with such acts like Soulfly has helped the band have a better understanding of how to adjust to a crowd to give them the best entrainment experience the band has to offer.Musically, Horror Scene pulls inspiration from industrial metal, gothic rock, modern metalcore, and classic horror film scores. The result is a sound that blends cinematic tension with explosive energy: pounding drums, razor-sharp guitars, haunting synths, and vocals that shift from melodic to monstrous. Working with Producer Daniel Malsch has helped the band develop their sound into something unique with a twist.Click Here to Subscribe to The Adventures of Pipeman for PERKS, BONUS Content & FREE GIVEWAYS!

Chapter 1: Pipeman interviews Welsh metalcore band Bless Your Dead.Rising from the ashes of When We Were Wolves, the band announce their arrival with the release of their debut single “Everyone's A Target” — a no-holds-barred statement of intent from a band reborn heavier, sharper and more focused than ever.They've just announced their debut show, performing at Noizzefest in Cardiff this April.The track is due for release on 5th February and is the first single from a wave of new music lined up for 2026. Bless Your Dead are poised to make a serious impact, returning with a sound that is heavier, more refined and more confrontational than ever before. Formerly known as When We Were Wolves, the four-piece metalcore outfit have spent the past year tearing everything down and rebuilding from the ground up. The result is Bless Your Dead: a band delivering heavy riffs, crushing breakdowns and anthemic choruses, driven by a renewed sense of purpose and aggression. The band features vocalist Mitch Bock, guitarists Jay Coatsworth and Jack Adams, and drummer Kristian Eirsland “After taking a year away to write and record, it became apparent that the material we were working on was something completely different to what we'd done before — and that's when Bless Your Dead was born,” explains vocalist Mitch Bock. “Everyone's A Target” serves as the first taste of what's to come.

Recorded in Nashville during the summer of 2025 and produced by multi-platinum songwriter and producer Marti Frederiksen (Aerosmith, Ozzy Osbourne, Buckcherry), the album fuses classic '70s rock, soul, and blues influences into a sound that feels both timeless and deeply personal.The record features the previously released singles “Così Bella (So Beautiful)” (2021) and “Your Own Worst Enemy” (2022), now presented as part of a rich collection of tracks that spotlight his commanding vocals, heartfelt lyrics, and masterful songwriting. Throughout the album, CORABI is joined by Marti Frederiksen, who adds backing vocals, guitars, piano, and percussion; Evan Frederiksen on drums, bass, B3 organ, electric guitar, mandolin, and programming; Richard Fortus (Guns N' Roses) on lead guitar; Paul Taylor (Winger, Steve Perry) contributing piano, organ, and clavinet, as well as Charlie Starr (Blackberry Smoke) offering guitar solos.

More than just a solo debut, ‘New Day' serves as CORABI's personal testament to rock's enduring spirit—an exploration of melody, soul, and authenticity, played with passion and conviction at every turn.Click Here to Subscribe to The Adventures of Pipeman for PERKS, BONUS Content & FREE GIVEWAYS!

Episode 29 opens with a subtle but meaningful shift in the room, as the Stairway to Eleven crew welcomes a new voice into the fold. Once the dust settles, the episode dives headfirst into a deceptively simple question: what was heavy before heavy metal existed? We trace the deep roots of heaviness, looking beyond volume and distortion to mood, rebellion, lyrical darkness, and sheer attitude. The discussion moves from blues legends and early rock pioneers through fire-and-brimstone gospel, proto-punk chaos, and the strange, dissonant edges that made it all possible long before Black Sabbath rewrote the rulebook.
Rhizomes are a five-piece based in France who have spent the last few years carving their psychedelic rock with oriental sounds. They popped by the arts24 studio to tell Marjorie Hache about their debut eponymous EP on which they sing in French, English, Arabic and Hebrew and whose aim is to unify and grow the same way as the subterranean horizontally growing roots that inspired their name. We also check out new releases by Californian pop metal artist Poppy, British rapper-producer Labrinth and Japanese-American indie darling Mitski.
Welcome to Part 2 of the second annual Seeing Them Live Year End Concert Review show, where a panel of returning guests share their favorite live music experiences from 2025. Host Charles brings together an eclectic group of music enthusiasts including Andy, Jessica, Steve, and superfan Dawn Fontaine to discuss the most memorable live music experiences of 2025.Dawn shares highlights from her incredible 55-show year, including intimate performances by New York punk bands The Lousekateers and Typhoid Rosie at JJ's Tavern in Florence, Massachusetts, and her milestone 50th Soraia show at Music Fest in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The conversation takes an extraordinary turn when Dawn recounts her once-in-a-lifetime experience winning a contest in 2002 that put her on the Rolling Stones' private jet, where she met and chatted with Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood, and the late Charlie Watts. The band even played her favorite song, "Can't You Hear Me Knocking," at the Denver show the next night. Dawn also discusses her new role booking shows for Soraia, turning her passion for the band into a dream job that allows her to be part of their team.Steve brings the star power with his account of seeing Lady Gaga at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, which he ranks in his top 10 concerts of all time despite not being a superfan. He describes the show as mind-blowing, with incredible choreography, costume changes, and an intimate piano performance of "Die With a Smile" that transformed the energy of the 18,000-person venue. Steve also highlights seeing St. Vincent at the Tabernacle in Atlanta, praising her guitar skills and stage presence influenced by David Byrne, as well as catching Joan Jett with Alanis Morissette and being amazed at how Joan's voice hasn't changed over the decades. His Vegas weekend also included the Psychedelic Furs at House of Blues and Adele at Caesars Palace, making for an unforgettable concert trip.Andy rounds out the episode with his diverse concert year, starting with the mesmerizing guitar work of Mdou Moctar at The Space and a spontaneous third-row experience seeing Los Lobos and Los Lonely Boys at Hard Rock Gary. His spring break trip to Vegas delivered a surprise highlight when he caught Joe Russo's Almost Dead at Brooklyn Bowl, calling it his surprise concert of the year with their incredible double guitar attack. Andy also shares his Bonnaroo experience, seeing Neil Young perform his new song "Crime in the White House" at Meigs Field (where they unknowingly appeared in the music video), and attending Riot Fest to see Jack White and the Beach Boys with John Stamos. The episode wraps with the group discussing their most anticipated 2026 shows, including Iron Maiden, Radiohead, Guns N' Roses with Public Enemy and Ice Cube, and the long-awaited Rush reunion.BANDS: Adele, Alanis Morissette, Ashley Gavin (comedian), Beach Boys, The, Beaches, The, Billy Idol, Black Crows, The, Buddy Guy, Cocktail Slippers, The, Cure, The, Dead & Company, Dogs in a Pile, Florence and the Machine, Gary Numan, Grunge Worthy, Guns N' Roses, Ice Cube, Idiot Kids, The, Iron Maiden, Jesus and Mary Chain, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, Joe Russo's Almost Dead, Lady Gaga, Lamp, Los Lobos, Los Lonely Boys, Lousekateers, The, Luke Combs, Marcus King, Mdou Moctar, Mighty Suicide Squirrels, The, Mogwai, Neil Young, Nine Inch Nails, Nirvana, Otis and the Elevators, Pretenders, The, Psychedelic Furs, The, Public Enemy, Radiohead, Rolling Stones, The, Rush, Rush Tribute Project, Soraia, Sonic Youth, St. Vincent, Talking Heads, Typhoid Rosie, Yeah Yeah Yeahs.VENUES: Aragon Ballroom, Bonnaroo, Brooklyn Bowl, Caesars Palace, Crypto Center, Douglas Park, FM Kirby Center, Foxborough Stadium (Patriots Stadium), Garcia's, Hard Rock (Gary, Indiana), Hotel Figueroa, House of Blues (Las Vegas), JJ's Tavern (Florence, Massachusetts), Meigs Field, Metro, The, Music Fest (Bethlehem, Pennsylvania), Redwood Bar (Redwood Grill), Riot Fest, Salt Shed, The, Soldier Field, Space, The, Sphere, The, Tabernacle, The, T-Mobile Arena, United Center, Vic, The, World Music Theater, Zinzenplatz stage (at Music Fest).

Bill Graham and Sid Bernstein were two of the greatest and most important rock music promoters of the 1960s. Bill Graham had two legendary theaters, the Fillmore West in San Francisco and the Fillmore East in New York City. He introduced and cultivated so many of the major stars of the era including Santana, Jefferson Airplane, Moby Grape, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Country Joe and the Fish, and the Grateful Dead on the west coast, and Blood Sweat & Tears, the Allman Brothers and The Band on the east coast.Sid Bernstein was the promoter who was responsible for The Beatles performing at Shea Stadium in New York City in 1965. He also brought the Stones, the Kinks, the Moody Blues and Herman's Hermits to America.

Welcome to the second annual Seeing Them Live Year End Concert Review show, where a panel of returning guests shares their favorite live music experiences from 2025. Host Charles brings together an eclectic group of music enthusiasts including award-winning documentary filmmaker Eric Green, podcast host Jessica Catena, nurse practitioner Summer, antique shop owner Art Gregg, executive assistant Dawn Fontaine, accountant Steve Pothel, high school teacher Andy, and producer Doug Flozak to discuss the concerts that defined their year.Eric Green kicks off the discussion with an impressive lineup that showcased both legendary side projects and emerging talent. His year began with Close Enemies featuring Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton at City Winery Boston, followed by Kim Deal's solo tour at the Wilbur Theater. He caught Benmont Tench of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers fame doing an intimate VH1 Storytellers-style performance, and witnessed Shane Hawkins honoring his late father Taylor Hawkins with Chevy Metal at Brighton Music Hall. Eric also saw the Joe Perry Project's supergroup lineup featuring Chris Robinson and Robert DeLeo, enjoyed a nostalgic double bill of Billy Idol and Joan Jett at the Xfinity Center, caught the rising stars Wet Leg at a packed Roadrunner Boston show, experienced Jeff Tweedy's multigenerational band at Royale, and closed out his year with Throwing Muses at the new Racket venue in New York City.Jessica Catena attended three memorable indoor concerts that kept her dry after previous years of rain-soaked shows. She saw young jazz sensation Samara Joy at the newly renovated Ridgefield Playhouse in Connecticut with her uncle, experienced the Broadway spectacle of Moulin Rouge featuring Wayne Brady and Taye Diggs with updated contemporary songs, and capped off her year at iHeartRadio's Jingle Ball at Madison Square Garden, where she saw Ed Sheeran, Laufey, and a diverse lineup of pop and folk artists while dealing with some challenging sightlines.Summer's concert year included the intimate Metro show with Bridget Calls Me Baby where her son met the bass player's parents, a record-breaking night at Lollapalooza featuring Olivia Rodrigo's surprise Weezer collaboration, an energetic Yungblud performance at the Riviera that included some crowd drama, and a unique operatic interpretation of Smashing Pumpkins' Melancholy and the Infinite Sadness at the Lyric Opera of Chicago during a snowstorm.Art Gregg had a remarkable year highlighted by three unforgettable shows. He saw childhood hero Burton Cummings of The Guess Who at the North Shore Center for Performing Arts after accidentally meeting him in the lobby without recognizing him, caught Michael Schenker's 50 Years with UFO celebration at the Desplaines Theater, and scored a last-minute ninth-row ticket to see Robert Plant at the intimate Vic Theatre, where the Led Zeppelin legend performed six classic songs including an electrifying version of Ramble On that earned a rare standing ovation.Charles rounds out the discussion by mentioning his own concert experiences at new Chicago venues including Space in Evanston where he saw Mdou Moctar and The Old 97s, the female-focused Motoblot festival at Beat Kitchen, an incredible Buddy Guy performance at the Rialto Square Theater where the 89-year-old blues legend walked through the aisles playing guitar, shows at the new Garcia's venue and City Winery, and his anticipation for an upcoming Iron Maiden show.

In this episode of Reading Is Funktamental, we discuss the long history and profound influence of a single song, “Hey Joe,” a tune that binds nearly every strand of 20th-century American popular music. “Hey Joe” was written sometime in the early 1960s by a man named Billy Roberts, an obscure singer and guitarist from South Carolina who moved to New York City, drawn by the burgeoning folk music scene in Greenwich Village. It was a time when original material was scarce, leading other singers to quickly adapt quality songs in the spirit of folk music's oral traditions. Thus began the long journey of “Hey Joe” from New York coffeehouses to the bars on L.A.'s Sunset Strip to the ears of a young guitarist named Jimi Hendrix, who launched his career with his radical, electrified interpretation. The story is related by Jason Schneider, author of That Gun In Your Hand, a new book that also presents previously unpublished information about the life of Billy Roberts, a shadowy figure whose 2017 death went unreported by all news outlets.
