That’s Awesome with Joe Joe Occhiuti & Sound Talent Media

Today on the pod Joe talks with Hyro the Hero. Hyro is every musicians favorite artist, and you can tell from the tours that hes done over the past decade. Sharing the stage with everyone from Wu Tang to Mindless Self Indulgence to The Deftones, Hyro has cemented himself as a fixture in the rock community. Hyro tells his story of how he transitioned from hip hop into the rock world while still holding on to his roots in hop hop. Pretty amazing tour stories in this one as well!

Today, Dan Jacobs of Atreyu joins us on the pod. Dan shares some great insight and PLENTY of tour stories on this. His 20+ years of playing music professionally have definitely supplied him with enough ammunition for some great tales, and I suspect that we could have gone on forever swapping stories. Dan also shares some insight on the new album 'Baptize,' writing with co-writers like Mark Hoppus and John Feldman, and the departure of frontman Alex Varkatzas and what its been like moving forward without him. Don't miss this one.

Baptize is out June 4 through Spinefarm Records

Today on the pod, Joe sits down with Johny Reeves from Kingdom Of Giants. Sharing common ground, both Joe and Johnny are the newest members of their bands, bass players, and contribute heavily to vocals. Kingdom Of Giants put out their latest effort in October of 2020 - Passenger. Feels like this talk goes everywhere- from DMB bus mishaps (again) to eating peanut butter ramen sandwiches, a rolling fire on an RV moving, and of course Tom Hanks.

In a first for That's Awesome with Joe, we have on an entire band as our guest. Yamhaus is Lars Pruitt on vocals and guitar, Seth Blum on lead guitar, Jake Felstow on drums, and Zach Beinlich on bass. They are the best band that you don't know about yet. Their infectious pop songs are only matched by their personalities and drive to succeed. If you're looking to hear what a band's mindset is right before they pop, this one is a great one for you.

Start- The Thrill
End- Pop Game
