Meet Black Sonic Pearls!

On this episode of RadioBypass, we welcome Alex Blacksonic, guitarist and founding member of Black Sonic Pearls, for a conversation about the band's story, their journey around the world, and the exciting new chapter they're creating.

Alex takes us back to the formation of Black Sonic Pearls and talks about the band's rapid rise onto stages around the globe, including touring with Slash featuring Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators.

That experience also led to a friendship and musical collaboration with Todd Kerns, who appears on two recent Black Sonic Pearls releases:

Earth Song feat. Todd Kerns — a dark, heavy reimagining of the Michael Jackson classic, approached through the musical spirit of Alice In Chains.

Exile In Hollywood feat. Todd Kerns — an original Black Sonic Pearls track offering another glimpse into where the band is heading next.

We talk with Alex about the inspiration behind both songs, how the relationship with Todd developed from touring together into creating music together, and what's ahead for Black Sonic Pearls.

And we're not just talking about the music — we're PLAYING IT!

After our conversation with Alex, crank it up and hear Earth Song and Exile In Hollywood in full!

Tesla guitarist Dave Rude joins RadioBypass to discuss the band’s new album, Homage, and the Return of the Carnival of Sins Tour with Mötley Crüe and Extreme.

Homage finds Tesla putting their own unmistakable stamp on songs originally recorded by a remarkably diverse group of artists, including Sam Cooke, Queen, The Temptations, Bob Seger, Elvis Presley, Badfinger, James Brown, Supertramp, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Etta James and Hank Williams Sr. The album also includes the brand-new Tesla original “Never Alone” and a new 2026 version of “I Love You.”

During our conversation, Dave discusses how the songs were chosen, how Tesla balanced respecting the original recordings with making each track their own, and how Homage compares with the band’s 2007 two-volume covers project, Real to Reel. That album was especially significant for Dave because it was his first recording project after joining Tesla in 2006.

We also talk about the musical variety represented throughout Homage, and Tesla’s summer run on the Return of the Carnival of Sins Tour with Mötley Crüe and Extreme.

At the end of the interview, Dave personally selects a song from Homage for us to play.
