Sit down… and listen to one of my favorite bands of all time. The Swingin’ Utters have just released their 9th studio album and I think everyone should be paying attention to these guys. If you’ve heard of them then I’m sure you’re a fan and just as excited as I am. If you’ve never heard of them, then you’re welcome… enjoy!

Sit down… and listen to music from one of the most important cities in the late 80’s and early 90’s. During this time all the good music was either coming from Seattle or was inspired by bands from there. There is a lot more to this city than just Pearl Jam and Nirvana… enjoy!

Sit down… and let me explain something. When two bands love each other very much something special happens and they give birth to a Supergroup. Try to see if you can pick up on what bands got together to create these babies… I mean Supergroups. I promise there will be no Hollywood Vampires… enjoy!

Sit down… and listen to a band that is total East Bay Hardcore… or are they? AFI’s sound has had a massive change over the years most notably over the last 4 albums. I made the mistake of not sticking with them through all the changes. Listen with me as I rediscover how amazing these guys can be!… enjoy!

Sit down… and listen to someone else’s music for a change. I was able to sit down with Simple Plan’s Seb Lefebvre at this summer’s Warped Tour. Based on our conversation I have put together a playlist of songs that meant something to him over the 2 decades the tour was active. Who knew that I would love sharing music with people even when I’m not in control? Lucky for us he has great taste… Enjoy!

Sit down… and listen to the perfect blend of punk rock and vintage rock n roll. Slip into your leather jacket, fire up your V8 roadster and comb that pomade through your hair. It’s time to listen to the coolest frontman in punk… Mike Ness!… Enjoy!

Sit down… and listen to the greatest Groove Metal band of all time. Vinnie Paul has just been reunited with her brother, Dimebag, in heaven. I would imagine things just got a lot louder up there. In celebration of their lives we will listen to a track from each of their albums including the ones they prefer you’d forget from the 80’s!… Enjoy!

Sit down… and listen to the most talented band that puts no for into pleasing anyone. NOFX has offended everyone at this point and yet their music is so catchy you still can’t help but love ’em!… Enjoy!

Sit down… and listen to songs that will stir up emotion. This time we’re playing all love songs. If there is any love in your heart, these songs will draw it out and make you want to share it with the world!… Enjoy!

Sit down… and listen to beats from another era. I’ve heard that today’s youth doesn’t care about the roots of Hip-Hop. I think it’s just cause they haven’t heard the right tracks!… Enjoy!

Sit down… and listen to the greatest sounds to come out of Jamaica. First came Ska and later came Reggae, but do you know what came in between and bridged the gap of these two Jamaican styles of music?… Rocksteady! There is no better music to listen to while kicking off your summer weekend!… Enjoy!
