Liam and Rob go cruising on a hot summer day. Rob opens up about a world without drinking.

The love of music is universal. The joy of happening upon a killer bass riff is the joy of a flawless execution of a passage by DeBussey. They both make you feel, they both give you a rush. But this is on the musicians’ end. The music lover, the music listener, may simply be moved […]

Let’s talk egos. In promoting yourself as an artist, you have to have an ego, even if you don’t have one. You have to promote yourself as a good time. But take this to an extreme, and you’re arrogant. But if you start with the premise that you suck, you can take that three miles […]
