Izzie’s Caravan PARS568

Izzie, from Izzie’s Caravan joins Bill on Episode 568 of the Pennsylvania Rock Show. The self-proclaimed musical child of early-Aerosmith and Johnny Winter, the roots of ‘Izzie’s Caravan’ trace back to the early 2000’s when Izzie (guitars) and Sim (vocals) formed ‘The Deep Impacters’. The band soon disbanded after a couple of records, and becoming disillusioned by the music industry, Izzie took a decades-long respite from guitar, eventually returning to the instrument he loved, just a few years ago…. Featuring Music from Super Monkey, Izzie’s Caravan, Doppler Affect, INCO FidO Interview Segment 1 with Izzie’s Caravan Where did the band name come from? If there was an apocalyptic event and one of your songs has to help repopulate the Earth, which song should it be and why? What would you sell your soul to the devil for? If you could sit on a bench and speak to one of your musical idols, but you’re only allowed to ask them one question; who would you sit with and what would you ask? What bands would you want to play with you on an international tour? Also what songs would we listen to while traveling from city-to-city? Where would you start and end the tour? Who is your Dave Grohl? Tell us a story about your song, Stick It To Ya. Interview Segment 2 with Izzie If you could hire any band to play at a BBQ or dinner at your house, which band would you hire and why? Can you tell me about the moment that you realized that you wanted to be in a band? If you could forget an album to hear it again for the first time to have that enjoyment again, which album would it be? You have a new album, where can the listeners get a copy of it? I know the pandemic has hurt a lot of musicians in some way, how has it affected you? What’s next for Izzie’s Caravan?

Walking the Redlines PARS366

Brian has 2 very interesting things going on between his band The Redlines & his video series Backseat Guitar in the Car. We’ll start with the Backseat Guitar in the Car, Brian learns a band’s song and plays it along with members of the band acoustically in his car. It is a weekly show. He has 12 shows up currently from The Shiners to Donny Eozzo. Next we talked about The Redlines. Brian says the point of the band was for him not to get bored. He says that he wanted to play Rock n’ Roll and anything that Rock n’ Roll was built upon. Brian then gave us some insight into how the band was formed. The Redlines are looking for a drummer, should you be looking for a band. Brian also told us that they are currently working on a new album. We also discussed Utah, Shady Lady Studio, 97.7 FM, The Band Jam as well as Corbriwoodstock for a bit too. This led to us discussing when bands pull members of other bands on stage to play with them and/or cover other local bands (I LOVE BOTH OF THESE SCENARIOS). After the break, we talked about Brian’s vast cd collection to get an idea of what musicians had an effect on who he was as a band member. He also gave us a list of his influences. We talked about his opening up for the Cherry Poppin’ Daddies at Metropol and his favorite venues including the Big Red Barn, Peter B’s. He also mentioned Wooley Bully’s as one of his favorites. You’ll have to listen to find out what band Brian would like to open for, his favorite local bands, and more… Bill apologizes to Bob Cupp, Utah, and the Grass Roots Show for having to back out as a guest for their show. <h2″>Songs played: Doppler Affect – Down the Line The Redlines – County Line The Shiners – Every Once in a While
