The Back Lounge Podcast TankTheTech

Unleash The Archers vocalist Brittney Slayes joins me for Episode 28 of the Back Lounge Podcast! The powerhouse singer talks with me about becoming a Mom, balancing parenting with the band, the new album, upcoming tours, and the drama that recently surround them (and other bands) for utilizing A.I. with their art, which leads to a bigger topic of how people treat each other on the internet.

Jaxon Hibler, a longtime cast member on the REACT Channel on YouTube, joins us for the latest podcast episode for a very open talk about how he joined the channel, how it operates, how it's effected his life, how he and other cast members deal with negativity on the internet, and even how he got kicked out of high school!

Sevendust vocalist Lajon Witherspoon joins us for Episode 26 of the podcast to discuss the upcoming Sevendust record "Truth Killer", current and upcoming tours, how to keep chemistry with a band for 25 years, being a dad, growing up in Nashville, and more!

Vocalist Melissa Bonny and guitarist Hans Platz of The Dark Side of the Moon join in for Episode 25 of The Back Lounge Podcast. We discussed the release of their first studio album with the band, how they divide time between this project, Feuerschwanz, and Ad Infinitum, playing their first live show as a band, the current state of the music industry, and a whole lot more!

One of my all time favorite guitarists, Rob Arnold, joins us for Episode 24 of The Back Lounge Podcast! Rob is a guitarist, producer, and audio engineer most known for being the long time guitarist for the Cleveland, Ohio, US based band Chimaira, and during this episode I got to nerd out with him over some old Chimaira nostalgia, talk to him about his recent solo album, what he thinks about the current state of the music industry and how it's changed over the years, digital vs tube amps, and a whole lot more!

Vocalist Kyle Anderson and Guitarist/Producer Leo Valeri of the Canadian Deathcore band Brand of Sacrifice join me for Episode 23 of the podcast. Our conversation took place right before they headed out on the second leg of Lorna Shore's Pain Remains tour, and we got to talk about their upcoming touring, trying new things with their music, their clothing line Shibori Threads, and what the metal community is currently missing with its culture.
