This week I have Jim and Han from the band Hot Milk from Manchester UK! I met them at this event I was throwing in L.A. called “Legends & Devils” at Grand Master Recordings, they stopped in at the club, and I saw Han was wearing this cool jacket, and I went up and started talk to them, and that’s how we became friends. I had them on the show when they were visiting America writing new music, and they stopped by Idobi and I got to learn all about them.
This week I have long time friend and singer songwriter Seth Trotter from band The Higher, I did some of my early touring along side his band on tour packages, I even got to play drums on some of their newly released material! We talk about the career of Seth and what’s next for The Higher going forward.
This week I have Jacob Spreng, he’s made merch designs for our band, you’ve might have even seen him sell IDKHOW merch behind the table at our shows, or him just hanging out with us, he also makes music as well. I think he’s a nice guy and wanted to have everyone learn a little more about him, we share some stories from the road as well.
This week I have long time friend and promoter from Arizona Stephen Chilton aka Psyko Steve! He has booked every band I’ve ever been in since I was the age of 17 years old, I met him by going to a concert in Arizona while visiting family because I cut these girls in line on accident on my way inside to the show (I thought I was going to the back of the line, but I went to the very front because I had never been to this place before). Here all his stories and learn more about Stephen and his awesome music festival he’s throwing on for the first time called Zona!
This week I have bass player and song writer Jake Floyd from band The Orphan The Poet, I got to tour with him earlier in 2022 when I was filling in for my friends in the band Weathers, I got to know him and thought he was a cool dude and we had a lot in common and I wanted to bring him on my show to learn more about him and his band, they’ve had success in Cincinnati and have been on alt radio and now I get to hear his story.
I have professional photographer Alyson Coletta, she’s has taken the absolute best live pics of me over the years in my drumming career, we talk about how she got started to where she is now, she takes the best photos for all your favorite bands and I wanted to have her on my show to learn more about her.
This week I have Dallon Weekes and myself go over the play by play of the album Razzmatazz. I try to get into his brain to see how he’s come up with the songs and how they finally came to life. This is a repeated episode that aired 2 years ago, but I wanted to bring it to all the digital platforms so everyone can hear the band dynamic.
This week I have Actor and Musician, Thomas Ian Nicholas. He has been in such notable and iconic movies such as American Pie and Rookie Of The Year. I met him through Matt Kennedy of The Dangerous Summer and we’ve been friends ever since. I even drummed on an American Pie cover album of his that he sang on. We’ve been friends for a long time and I learn his story this week.
This week I have Digital Marketing Specialist Kyle Hulett, he works on getting eyeballs on bands off internet ads for such labels as Pure Noise and Sumerian, as well as other independent artists. We talk about what it takes to be in his industry and how it helps out bands with the right team, and how he came to be!
This week I have singer Nicolette Vilar from the band Go Betty Go, they’re starting to play shows again and I talk to her about how she got her start in music and where her career has taken her. We also realized we’ve been on tour together before but didn’t know it and didn’t know each other, we met through mutual friends and I wanted to get her story.
