    Nene Royal & Brook Lynn Are ROCKING AGT! | Valkyrie Sessions Ep. 8

    Nene Royal was damn near perfect with her cover of Muse’s “Hysteria” on AGT — but she wasn’t the only woman bringing some rock and metal into the competition. Brook Lynn took on Evanescence’s “Bring Me to Life,” and suddenly rock fans might have a LOT more to root for this season than we thought. On Episode 8 of Valkyrie Sessions, Aaron breaks down both performances and why Nene continues to look like a legitimate contender to win the entire competition. Plus, we get into the latest news surrounding Within Temptation, the new collaboration between Courtney LaPlante and Oli Sykes for VALORANT, and the newly released Louder Than Life set times — including some seriously impressive representation for women on the Decibel Stage. Jessie Powell of Dream State joins Valkyrie Voices to share her perspective on the opportunities finally opening up for women across rock and metal, before we dive into an album review of Dorothy’s The Way and spotlight Catalyst Crime as the Band of the Week. From AGT to festivals, new music and rising bands, it’s another packed episode celebrating the women shaping rock, metal and heavy music. ⚔️ Valkyrie Sessions — the hub for everything going on with women in rock, metal & heavy music.
