Episode 1406: Welsh Rockers, THE NOW

4-piece motley crew THE NOW from South Wales joins STRIKE A CHORD to release the Devil Inside. When Elvis got on stage in the 1950's and shook his money maker the girls went wild but the critics went wilder. They said with moves like Jagger society as we know it would be destroyed and the gates of hell would open up and swallow all of us. However, after a quick satanic ritual from Sam Smith the WiFi started working and we opened the show—because everyone knows you have to wear a thong to get into Hell. Sex, drugs and Rock ’n’ Roll is the go-to counter culture sacrament but THE NOW is a movement not a judgement. A safe space to bridge those barriers. So, how does THE NOW deal with detractors saying your singing and dancing your way to hell? The lads admit to dancing topless and praising co-host Marissa for more sales. We’ll see how this goes but the ladies love it. Breaking Band? There’s a new debut LP about to drop. How many physical and mental obstacles does it take for Oli Jacobs to produce a full album? Each song has its own individual character. There’s more to the band than a quiet verse and big chorus. The gates are open at Chris Collins Show. Follow THE NOW support and listen: https://www.instagram.com/thenowuk
