California’s kings of summery rock anthems have released their third album just in time to beat the inevitable heat, and with Eureka the band have once again proven their ability to craft a timeless record collection of fun-in-the-sun jams.

Tune in as we talk about how Mike and I met each other as well as he got his start in the music industry that he’s now successful in!
In this episode of DISPOSABLE HEROES, I sit down with Jess Bowen, the fabulous, hard hitting, Bonham-esque backbeat behind The Summer Set. We chat about her love for the drums coming into full bloom, grinding with her band The Summer Set, multiple stints on warped tour, overalls , puppies, playing with 3OH!3, and all the magic that unfolded from there. Oh ya, she also has an epic podcast of her own on the amazing Idobi network called, “Babes Behind the Beats”. You won’t want to miss this very special episode, so tune out and tune in, and be sure to check her out online at Instagram.com/JessBowan.
