This week is my final episode here on Idobi Radio, I'm calling it a day to focus on more music, I may be back in the future when I have more time to do this show, but I'd like to thank everyone that's been on the ride, and thanks to Idobi for pushing me into doing a show for them in the first place. This week, I have a new project that I'm playing for called MERCY MUSIC, we're going on tour all over the place in 2024, and on this weeks episode, we play LIVE, even the mistakes are left in there (haha), I find out more about the band I'm about to be playing with, and we share stories from the road amongst other things. Check out Mercy Music and MY Instagram to keep up with everything, I'll be playing with them and a bunch of other artists. Enjoy this episode! 

This week I have session drummer and friend Ryland Steen, he's been playing for the classic rock band America now for a while, and was also the drummer in Reel Big Fish, we talk about how he got a major record label deal at an early age with his band called Audiovent and how that led him to turning down playing full time with Maroon 5. We talk about what it's like being a hired and touring drummer and his story about how he got into music. 

This week I have Tour Manager and Sound Guy- Jason Lupeituu, we toured together off and on for 3 years when I was in my last project and he did sound and looked after us on the road, we talk about how he got started in this industry and how he keeps pushing through having to work for different bands and in different scenarios within his career. 

This week I have solo artist Kenzo Cregan on the show, we talk about how we met, we talk about his career as a solo artist and how he got to where he is today, I met him through my friends in the band Weathers and I get to know him better through this conversation. 

This week I talk to long time friend and bass player Hunter Burgan from the band AFI, we talk about how he got started in music, how we met, and how my band in high school opened for AFI,  and at the time that was the biggest show I had ever played. We talk briefly how I also played drums in his side project Hunter Revenge and we learn what he's been up to with his musical endeavors. 

This week I have singer/songwriter Rev from the band The Drowns, he stared the punk band with my old middle school friend and drummer Jake Margolis (Madcap/Everclear) and they've been hitting it hard ever since. I learn Rev's story about how he came up in music and where his band is heading, and we exchange old road stories, as well as talk about their new album that just came out.
