    In this episode, we're joined by none other than Collin Walsh, the voice behind Grayscale. Collin gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the band's latest chapter—kicking off with their new single “Not Afraid to Die”, a bold, synth-infused track that marks a major shift in their sound and direction.

    We talk about what it’s like going independent, the emotional layers behind recent tracks like “Mum II” and “Summer Clothes”, and even dive into how the band (and industry) is evolving, and thow hey're doing it on their own terms.

    Plus, Collin teases what fans can expect from Grayscale’s upcoming tour with Our Last Night—from new setlists to life on the road, it’s clear they're more fired up than ever.

    If you’re a longtime fan or just getting into the band, this is the perfect time to catch up with Grayscale and hear where they're headed next.

    Back in the late '90s, when I was diving headfirst into the world of playing in bands, I was like a sponge—soaking up every bit of inspiration from the best of the best.

    One of the biggest influences on me when it came to stage presence and connecting with an audience was someone I now have the privilege of calling a friend: Steve Ewing of The Urge

    This is Steve's second time on the show—and I can’t wait to share this latest episode with all of you.

    Even more pumped to see The Urge live again on July 12 in Omaha. You do not want to miss it!

    Frnd Crcl, pronounced "Friend Circle," is a band based in Vineland, NJ, steadily making a name for themselves in the pop punk scene. Formed in 2018, they began to turn heads with the release of their sophomore album, Internet Noise, which dropped during the chaotic year of 2020. Often compared to pop punk heavyweights like Blink-182 and Sum 41, FRND CRCL is now aiming to carve out their own unique identity with their upcoming release, JRSY FRSH, set to drop on May 30.

    Joining me on the podcast today is Zac Johnson of FRND CRCL. We dive into the band's journey—past, present, and future—and explore our perspectives on creativity in today’s ever-evolving music industry.

    Nick Hexum is best known as the frontman of the band 311, which has now been together for over 30 years. In fact, their 1995 breakthrough release, commonly and affectionately referred to as "the Blue Album," turns 30 years old on July 11, 2025—just one day before their concert in their hometown of Omaha, NE, for 89.7 The River's 30th birthday bash.

    Throughout 311's career, they have released 14 studio albums, many of which reached the top 10 of the Billboard 200 charts. The band has maintained its longevity through constant touring and by building a loyal, worldwide fanbase. In the eyes of many—including myself—311 is summertime's most favorite band.

    In 2025, Nick is taking his creativity to another level by releasing what he describes as 25 solo songs across multiple EPs. The first two, "Waxing Nostalgic" and "Full Memories," dropped in February and April of this year.

    These solo releases showcase a noticeable shift toward vulnerability and transparency. The themes revolve around coming to terms with one’s relationship with nostalgia while also looking ahead to the future. A strong influence in this material is Nick's role as a father, husband, and all-around family man, resulting in a refreshing honesty conveyed through well-crafted Americana music.

    As a long time 311 fan, I personally, have been trying to manifest this conversation for five years and am glad to have had the opportunity to express my gratitude to Nick in this episode.
