This week, we sit down with Kyle Pfeiffer, better known to his fans as Blacklite District. He's gained popularity by working with video game creators and other fans on-line, creating a much more immersive and lasting relationship with his music.

His current tour starts at an earlier time and includes time after the gig for everyone to hang out and meet fans and play video games. He also has a new record coming out soon.

For more information and tour dates, check out Blacklite District's website, or you can follow them on Facebook.

Nick Sabia is a songwriter, singer, musician, engineer... basically, his life is made up of music. And, really, we're all the richer for it. His new song, Back East, is out now. (And don't worry, there's more where that came from.)

For more information, you can check out Nick's website, or you can follow him on Instagram.

Plus, updates on one of our favorite guests and her exciting summer plans, and there's new Redd Kross on the horizon!

Rockie Lynne is a talented singer, songwriter and guitarist. And, while that is impressive enough, when you hear Rockie's story, it becomes all the more fascinating.  "Rockie Lynne- Where I Belong," is a new documentary film telling the story of the album and of Rockie's life. The accompanying album,  Love, is more of the honest, sincere songwriting you'd expect.

The film is streaming on Amazon Prime and the record is available wherever you get your music. For more information, check out Rockie's website, or follow him on Facebook.

We thought a nice way to celebrate Earth Day would be to share this conversation with music star and children's author Sheri Miller. Along with her mother, Linda Miller, Sheri wrote a book, called "Honoring Our Planet- Think!" which is out now. We talked about conservation, gratitude and so much more.

"Honoring Our Planet- Think!" is available right now, wherever you get your books, from Newman Springs Publishing

We spoke with Escape the Fate’s drummer when their most recent record came out. Now, as a special edition of Out of the Shadows coming out AND a tour with the Emo Orchestra starting tonight, we talk with the band’s lead singer Craig Mabbitt. On top of getting to hear some Escape the Fate favorites, you’ll also get to hear some of the greatest hits of the emo genre. We talked with Craig about playing with an orchestra and how you prep for a live show featuring a lot of running.
Out of the Shadows 2.0 (Deluxe Edition) comes out this Friday, April 19th. And you can see them live with Emo Orchestra right now! For more information, check out the band’s website, or you can follow them on Facebook.
