Being a rockstar is a lot of hard work but it’s got nothing on being a dad; just ask Jaret Reddick + Gary Wiseman.

Every week Jaret + Gary will invite other rockstar dads on air to talk about the highs and lows of parenting between band practice.

The coffee is brewing, the music is playing. It’s time to Rise Rock n’ Shine… Who: Is it indie? Is it rock? Is it punk? When it comes to Youth Killed It, the answer is always yes.

It’s been a long road to “Nerves”, the latest song from Nashville’s Spazz Cardigan. Staying true to the “Millenial post-genre landscape” he subscribes to, the song is hard to explain. However we will tell you it’s addictive, interesting, and the video is freaking strange—in all the best ways. When “Nerves” first took shape, it was just a b-side. “The song was originally going to be a last-minute addition to my first album, I, which was complete at the time but unreleased,” Spazz Cardigan tells us. It was a friend who convinced him to drop it before he released the album,… Read more »
