Kaleido

Kaleido enters their first voyage on the Pennsylvania Rock Show by starting off by telling us about the meaning behind their band name. Bill then asks them about the most embarrassing moment that one of their band members had on stage (they couldn’t talk about themselves). This is where the interviews always get interesting. In a role reversal, the band asks Bill about his most embarrassing moment on the show (see the Bloody Seamen episode)… Bill has them talk about their own music collections to give you an idea of who influences the band. Kaleido give us a little bit of insight into the Detroit scene, but because they are a nationally touring band, they didn’t feel they could do the scene justice. We open up talking about the upcoming documentary on Kaleido, called 9 Mile (okay not really) and the bands that they have performed with. Find out what you would hear if you played a Kaleido album backwards. Find out which 1 song Kaleido thinks should survive the time and best represents them the best. You can also learn about who has most supported the band members over the years.

A Shotts in the Dar… Shadows.. Tilted Shadows

Commiserating with our esteemed host (OK, it’s just Bill) this week is Gregg Shotts of Tilted Shadows and Post Traumatik. He told us that Tilted Shadows has 4 songs written and are hoping to be recording soon. This brings up their writing process. Gregg told us that sometimes David brings the song to everyone, other times Dave shows up at his place and they work on some of it and then take it to the rest of the band. He also mentioned that Joey sometimes brings new ideas/songs to the band. We then talked about trying to unite the tri-state music scenes and his ideas on what could help make that come to a fruition. We talked about how older talent can help the younger talent and really bring recognition to their bands just through networking. It could also help bands get booked in venues that they normally wouldn’t get added to. We talked about the different bands he has played in since coming to Pennsylvania. He loves playing 90’s style rocking songs, nothing too heavy. He likes the local heavy bands, but doesn’t think he has the stamina to play that style. One interesting story that he brings up has to do with Chelsea, Post Traumatik’s singer, seeing Tilted Shadows play for the first time… but you need to listen to hear why… Get your copy of Tilted Shadow’s Album, Nothing Ventured on CD Baby.
