A Year Ago Today has a proven over 12 month track record as local support for HED PE. The four-man newcore metal band from the Illinois/ Wisconsin state line. was also a co headliner for Solar's album release show for thier full length debut album, Frantically Calm back in March. Both bands will light up hte stage at Rockhaus in West Dundee on Black Friday with Indign and Strident Escape. I talk with A Year Ago Today guitarists Adrian Schupp and Jake Smith about the the lyrical inspiration behind their second single, Mob Action. and the perfection of singer Bryan Selch.
Danny Lynch is one of rock's greatest storytellers. The story of his music journey was left unfinished and put on an extended hiatus. The band who featured his last name made a big comeback in 2010 with their new solid hard rock EP Window Of Your Soul. Since calling it quits with Lynch in 2019, Danny has formed Society Of Hoodlums, with ex Lynch drummer Frank Pace. I have their new highly visual and psychedelic second single. And I'm forever thankful that I captured though the magic of terrestrial radio airwaves, Lynch in The Kat 105.5 studio with a special totally electric set on Thanksgiving night 2010, It was the perfect ear watering music soundtrack to a, mouth watering turkey dinner. No turkeys on music menu on this night.
