Featuring music from: Neostem, (kaj), Paradigm, Ultraviolent Segment 1 with Tizz Shearer of XRPRadio.co.uk You approached me asking if I’d like to on XRP Radio, how did you hear about the Pennsylvania Rock Show? You do some outreach and social media work, can you touch upon that? How can artists get airtime on XRP Radio? What if someone wanted to add a show to your schedule? Can you talk about the history of the radio station? How did it get started? Segment 2 with Tizz Shearer If you were waiting at a crossroads for the devil and he showed up, what would you sell your soul for? If you could play a gig with any band at any location, who would you want to play with and where? If you could back in time without breaking the space-time continuum and you could hang out with any band to do an interview, who would you want to interview? Who is your Dave Grohl? If you were to play a musician in a documentary, who would you want to play? Who are some bands that you play that you think the listeners should go out and listen to? If I was flipping through my social studies book, why would you be in there? What’s up next? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffCZcjfaDXM

(Check our our 2021 Festival Guide) Tell us about your new single Cut n’ Run. Segment 2 with Eric of Royal Honey Your song, SOS 2020 started its own movement and you can get the whole story on how the song is raising money for NIVA’s Emergency Relief fund. It has also sparked its own concert series with season 2 starting on April 8, 2021. This season features Singer Songwriter Night, a Blues Night, a Jazz Night, and a Metal Night. We discuss Winter Descent’s new track, Fortune. We also talk about the community building that came out of the SOS 2020 project: being able to invite bands that weren’t necessarily involved in the song, involvement from places like First Angel Media. How the project brought about new relationships within the music scene. We also have a Pre-Show Podcast interview series that evolved from the project. Shoutout to Nightlife Line. They are building a hospitality and nightlife worker fund that will distribute modest cash grants to people in our industries whose incomes and ability to work have been affected by COVID-19. This past weekend, Pittsburgh went big in support of Moondogs!

3 Questions for Ray Powers Having started touring at the age of 15 and being into different aspects of the music industry over your lifetime, what do you believe was your biggest moment? You can pick 1 album that you’ve already heard to erase the memories of having heard it, and go back to listen to it like it’s the first time again. What would it be? Do you prefer working with artists on the production side of things, or performing in front of an audience? asked by Shock Frenzy in episode 34. About the song, It’s You This is my second-ever solo single, originally released in 2013 and remains a mainstay in my live set. I composed the music and lyrics unassisted. Music comes to me effortlessly, but lyrics can be a challenge. When I hit a speed bump on the lyric is when I’ll typically reach out for a collaborator, but ‘It’s You’ pretty much flowed for me. I laugh when I hear a recording artist say that they can’t pick a favorite song because, how you do play favorites among your ‘babies’? Songs evoke feelings, but songs don’t have feelings that can be hurt. ‘It’s You’ is my favorite. I’m excited that the 2020 Remaster will give this and others a fresh new life on the airwaves.
