Episode 452 - Inside David Ellefson's Unbreakable Album: Music as Medicine for Depression

When Words Fail...Music Speaks

In today's episode host James Cox sits down with veteran rocker David Ellefson—a guitarist whose love affair with music began at eleven, when the bass line of Bachman‑Turner‑Overdrive's Not Fragile sparked a lifelong obsession. From those early needle‑drops to the thunder of KISS‑era amps, David walks us through the soundtrack of his life: the grind of marching‑band sax, the thrill of early cover‑band gigs, and the relentless quest to chase the songs that saved him from the darkness of depression.We dive deep into David's recent projects—his “No Cover” collection of beloved cuts, the hard‑rock collaboration with Jeff Scott Soto on the new album Unbreakable, and the behind‑the‑scenes stories from legendary Battery Studios in London, the very rooms that birthed Iron Maiden, Def Leppard, and even the original Nevermind console. Along the way, we hear anecdotes about the Trans‑Siberian Orchestra, Megadeth's “Big Four” saga, and a poignant moment recording a video right as the world mourned Ozzy Osbourne's passing.If you've ever found solace in a guitar solo, a soaring vocal, or the simple act of pressing play, this conversation is for you. Tune in as we explore how music not only fuels a career but also becomes a lifeline—one chord at a time.

The show begins on a festive note — with drummer Jeff Plate previewing Trans-Siberian Orchestra's dazzling Christmas tour, complete with lasers, pyro, and snow inside the arena. But joy turns quickly to dread as listeners call in about Charlie Kirk's assassination. A self-described amateur rifleman explains how shockingly little skill is needed to carry out such an attack, while others recount overhearing laughter about Kirk's murder in public spaces. Anger and fear rise as calls for firing squads and swift justice echo through the lines. Then the breaking news: the assassin's name. Twenty-two-year-old Tyler Robinson of Utah, a scholarship student, arrested after throwing away his future — and others' lives — in a single horrific act. With the FBI press conference looming, the episode captures a nation reeling: parents praying, citizens demanding vengeance, and a deep unease about security, radicalization, and where this violence will lead next.

We get into their unique approaches to performance, like Tree Gaud's “Flip God” set packed with bootlegs and bass, and Ozztin's genre-blurring style that lands somewhere between weird and heavy. They talk about growing up on Grateful Dead, Weird Al, and Adventure Club, and how those early shows shaped their path into electronic music.

oel Hoekstra is a powerhouse guitarist known for his technical skill, versatility, and relentless work ethic. Born on December 13, 1970, in Iowa City, Iowa, and raised in a musical household, he started out playing cello and piano. But everything changed when he saw Angus Young of AC/DC on TV—at that moment, he knew guitar was his calling. That inspiration launched a career that would span Broadway stages, stadium tours, and studio sessions with some of the biggest names in rock.Joel first gained wider recognition playing with Night Ranger in the late 2000s. Around the same time, he became a fixture in the Broadway musical Rock of Ages, performing eight shows a week while juggling touring commitments with rock bands. His ability to seamlessly shift between hard rock stages and theater pits set him apart from most guitarists in the scene.He later joined the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, known for their elaborate holiday arena tours, and in 2014, he landed a major gig as guitarist for Whitesnake. Since then, he's toured the world with the band, appearing on albums like The Purple Album and Flesh & Blood, where he also contributed as a songwriter. He's also performed alongside Cher, playing guitar for her Las Vegas residency and her “Here We Go Again” tour, proving he can hold his own in any musical environment.In addition to his high-profile band work, Joel leads his own project, Joel Hoekstra's 13, a melodic hard rock supergroup featuring players like Russell Allen, Vinny Appice, Tony Franklin, and Jeff Scott Soto. The project has released several critically acclaimed albums—Dying to Live (2015), Running Games (2021), and Crash of Life (2023)—with a new one on the way in 2025. The music is a blend of soaring vocals, powerful riffs, and sharp songwriting that showcases Joel's full range as a musician and producer.Outside of performing, Joel is a respected session guitarist and educator. He's contributed to albums by Foreigner, Dee Snider, and many others, and he's shared his expertise in magazines like Guitar World. Whether he's tearing it up onstage with a rock legend or composing intricate solos in the studio, Joel Hoekstra continues to prove why he's one of the most in-demand guitarists in rock today.⸻
