    Mickey Thomas (Starship/Jefferson Starship)

    In this in depth interview, Mickey Thomas reflects on his remarkable journey from singing the iconic vocal on Elvin Bishop’s “Fooled Around and Fell in Love” to becoming the powerhouse frontman for Jefferson Starship and later Starship.

    Denny Tedesco - Filmmaker of Documentaries on Legendary Session Musicians: 'The Wrecking Crew' and 'Immediate Family'

    What if I told you that the Beach Boys didn’t actually play the instruments on some of their most iconic tracks, or that the Monkees were just the face of a phantom band operating from the shadows? On this episode of Sonic Impact, we pull back the curtain on the greatest musical magic trick of the 20th century with filmmaker Denny Tedesco. We are diving deep into the legacy of his father, the legendary Tommy Tedesco, and the secret society of session musicians—The Wrecking Crew and The Immediate Family—who were the invisible architects of the 60s and 70s sound. These unsung heroes built the soundtrack of our lives in single-take recording sessions, crafting the grooves for everyone from Frank Sinatra to James Taylor while the stars on the album covers took the credit. Tune in to discover how a group of jazz cats accidentally invented the sound of rock and roll, and find out which legendary guitar solo was actually just a musician looking for his cigarettes.

    Bill Appleberry - Producer / Mixer - Wallflowers, Stone Temple Pilots, The Voice

    On this episode of Sonic Impact, we're pulling back the curtain with our good friend and an absolute legend behind the glass, the incredible Bill Appleberry. Ever wonder what happens when you're working late at the iconic A&M Studios and Paul McCartney casually walks in asking to play the piano for a bit? Bill was there. We get into the jaw-dropping, full-circle story of how winning tickets to see The Eagles at age 12—and not being allowed to go!—led to him being on stage with Joe Walsh years later, asking himself, "What the hell am I doing here?" From crafting a #1 R&B hit with the vocal group Shy to deep-diving into records with Stone Temple Pilots and The Wallflowers, Bill's journey is a masterclass in being at the right place at the right time, with the talent to back it up.

    Kevin Martin of Candlebox

    On this episode of Sonic Impact, we sit down with the voice of a generation, Kevin Martin, the iconic frontman of the multi-platinum Seattle rock band Candlebox. We unpack the raw, unfiltered story of a band that felt like an outsider in their own hometown, even as their debut album exploded across the globe.

You’ll hear the deeply personal and emotional origin story behind their smash hit "Far Behind"—a tribute that defines a legendary moment in music history—and what it was really like being signed by Madonna. This isn’t just about the music; it's about the moments that shaped the man, the blessings and the curses of sudden fame, and the surprising reason he still gets nervous every single time he walks on stage.

    Train Pat Monahan/ Led Zeppelin

    Raised in Erie, PA, Train frontman Pat Monahan was inspired by the iconic rock band Led Zeppelin to pursue his rock n' roll dreams. Without any musical training, Pat learns how to sing, moves to San Fran, forms Train and against all odds goes on to write and record some of the biggest hits of the past 25 years - including "Soul Sister," "Drive By," "Marry Me," "Drops of Jupiter" and climbs the heights of rock stardom. Years later Pat will record a Led Zeppelin 2 tribute album to honor his musical heroes, which gets the stamp of approval from the band. Humble and low key, Pat continues to pass on his love of his British rock gods, and his musical gifts to his 12 year old son who is now a talented singer in his own right. As Train goes out on the road this summer with REO Speedwagon, this career retrospective captures Pat Monahan at the perfect moment, still rockin' and rolling and still searching for new ways to move and inspire his fans through his lyrical and vocal talents.
