    YALANA - Confessions of a Good Girl

    From Russia to the USA and 16 years in between - Yalana: Finding Her Way Back to Music, Creativity & Her True Self   What happens when you walk away from music for fifteen years… and then discover it was waiting for you all along?   On this episode of The Jeremiah Show, I sit down with pop-rock artist and songwriter Yalana to explore a remarkable story of reinvention, healing, and creative rebirth.   Before launching a successful public relations career in Los Angeles, Yalana spent six years fronting a rock band in Russia, performing concerts, writing songs, and chasing the dream of a life in music. But when her career path shifted, music slowly faded into the background. For nearly a decade, she didn't write a single song.   Then something changed.   After years of helping other artists tell their stories, Yalana began reconnecting with her own. What followed was an unexpected creative awakening that led to more than twenty new songs, including her debut singles "Good Girl" and "I Am You, You Are Me."   During our conversation, Yalana shares her journey from Russia to Los Angeles, the pressures of being the "good girl," the power of therapy and self-discovery, and why it's never too late to return to your true self.   This is a conversation about music, transformation, and finding the courage to become who you were always meant to be.   "It's never too late to get back to yourself, to your true self."   In This Episode: Growing up in Russia and fronting a rock band Building a successful career in public relations Moving to Los Angeles with almost no English The creative awakening that sparked her return to music The story behind "Good Girl" Healing, self-discovery, and finding your authentic voice Why songwriting became a form of therapy What's next for Yalana Featured Songs: • "Good Girl" • "I Am You, You Are Me"   Follow YALANA INSTAGRAM TikTok   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Yolana and Her Musical Journey 05:00 Transition from Music to PR and Back 10:06 Insights on the Russian Music Industry 14:53 The Emotional Journey of Songwriting 19:58 Reconnecting with Music and Inner Self 25:09 Yolana's New Music and Artistic Evolution 34:54 Vocal Evolution and Techniques 37:07 The Journey of Songwriting 40:20 Returning to Music and Personal Growth 45:22 The Essence of Yolana: Transformation and Identity 48:25 Breaking Free from Expectations 52:36 Overcoming Self-Sabotage 54:16 Recognizing the Forgotten Self 56:34 The Role of Supportive Relationships 01:00:18 The Artist's Vision and Future Projects   The Jeremiah Show features conversations with music icons, filmmakers, chefs, entrepreneurs, authors, and artists who inspire us to listen more and evolve.   POP CULTURE, MUSIC ICONS, & FOOD GODS - Listen More & Evolve   Catch Up With Past Shows and Your Favorite Guests - TJS MEDIA LIBRARY   Partner with The Jeremiah Show  BRAND PARTNER DECK   The Jeremiah Show is brought to you by Evolve Entertainment Network  www.thejeremiahshow.com https://radio-evolve.rocks   Host | Executive Producer - Jeremiah D.

    Jeff Bergman The Magic of Saturday Morning Cartoons

    Jeff Bergman: The Voice Behind Bugs Bunny, Looney Tunes & Toy Story 5   What happens when a kid who loved Saturday morning cartoons grows up to become the voice of Bugs Bunny? On this episode of The Jeremiah Show, I sit down with legendary voice actor and master impressionist Jeff Bergman, the only performer officially chosen to succeed the great Mel Blanc as the voice of Bugs Bunny and many of the beloved Looney Tunes characters. Jeff shares the remarkable story of tracking down his childhood hero, Mel Blanc, to a hotel room in Pittsburgh, where a brief conversation would ultimately change the course of his life. We discuss imagination, childhood memories, the art of becoming someone else, and the responsibility of preserving characters that have shaped generations of fans. Along the way, Jeff performs several unforgettable voices, including Bugs Bunny, Yosemite Sam, Sylvester, Porky Pig, and even a spot-on Robert De Niro impression. He also reflects on stepping into one of entertainment's most iconic legacies, carrying the Looney Tunes torch for more than four decades, and what it means to be a custodian of our childhood memories. We also discuss his upcoming role as Mr. Potato Head in Toy Story 5, taking over a character made famous by the legendary Don Rickles, as well as the exciting launch of the new Looney Tunes attractions at Six Flags. Whether you grew up watching Saturday morning cartoons or simply love hearing how extraordinary careers begin, this conversation is filled with nostalgia, humor, and heartfelt stories from one of the most recognizable voices in animation.

  6. Sierra Levesque is the New Generation

    May 29

    Sierra Levesque is the New Generation

    At just 21 years old, Canadian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Sierra Levesque is proving that guitar-driven rock still has the power to ignite a new generation.    Raised on the sounds of Guns N’ Roses, Ozzy Osbourne, and Heart, Levesque transformed an early obsession with music into a relentless pursuit of artistry, teaching herself the drums, piano, guitar, and bass by the age of 13,  while developing a sound that channels the energy and guitar-driven spirit of ’80s hard rock and metal with her own distinct style.   Her explosive live performances, unmistakable image, and fearless authenticity have already earned praise from Guitar World, which called her “the future of rock ’n’ roll,” while mentors and collaborators, including Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal (Guns N' Roses), Nancy Wilson, and LA Guns, have become part of her rapidly expanding orbit. Yet despite the comparisons to past icons, Levesque remains focused on carving out her own identity. “I wanna be Sierra Levesque,” she says. “I don’t really wanna be the next someone.”   What makes Levesque especially compelling is her refusal to simply imitate the artists who inspired her. Whether she’s performing arena national anthems, sharing stages with rock legends, or building a fiercely loyal online following, her focus remains on creating music that feels unmistakably her own. “I want people to know it’s Sierra Levesque when they hear me,” she explains — a mission that comes fully alive on her debut album NEW GENERATION, a 13-track collection of fully original, self-recorded songs that has already surpassed 2.5 million Spotify streams. Combining heavy riffs, emotionally honest songwriting, and arena-sized hooks, NEW GENERATION positions Sierra Levesque as one of the most exciting young artists carrying rock forward for the NEXT GENERATION.   Sierra Levesque’s WEBSITE | INSTAGRAM | SPOTIFY    Photo Credits: Jack Lue   Chapters – Sierra Levesque 00:00 – Jeremiah's Rock & Roll Origin Story Jeremiah shares how discovering AC/DC as a kid changed his life and set him on a path toward music. 10:09 – From Musical Theater to Heavy Metal Sierra discusses growing up in musical theater, discovering rock music, and the influence of her family. 18:00 – KISS, Ozzy, and Finding Her Musical Identity The bands that shaped Sierra's sound, her first rock concert, and why classic rock became her passion. 22:17 – Taking Chances and Learning Every Instrument Sierra talks about reaching out to artists, learning guitar, bass, drums, and piano, and the discipline behind her success. 31:45 – Self-Doubt, Perseverance, and Online Criticism A candid conversation about confidence, criticism, social media, and staying focused on long-term goals. 37:08 – Song Feature: "Don't Go" Sierra introduces her single "Don't Go" and the inspirations behind the song. 45:26 – Loss, Mentorship, and Finding Her Sound Remembering mentor Pat Hamill, working with Bumblefoot, and developing a unique artistic voice. 01:13:54 – The Future of Rock & Roll Sierra discusses her vision for modern rock, inspiring young musicians, and carrying the torch for a new generation.   POP CULTURE, MUSIC ICONS, & FOOD GODS - Listen More & Evolve   Catch Up With Past Shows and Your Favorite Guests - TJS MEDIA LIBRARY   Partner with The Jeremiah Show  BRAND PARTNER DECK   The Jeremiah Show is brought to you by Evolve Entertainment Network  www.thejeremiahshow.com https://radio-evolve.rocks   Host | Executive Producer - Jeremiah D.

Drawing inspiration from traditional folk ballads, doom, punk, and Irish storytelling traditions, Beau opens up about embracing life’s darker emotions instead of hiding from them.

Nicole speaks candidly about mental health, OCD, social media authenticity, self-love, and the emotional highs and lows that come with building an independent music career.
