Sponsor: MxPx Announce Livestream Series

MxPx - Sponsor

MxPx will be playing live on the internet this Friday, October 16th at 6:30pm PT. Tickets and merch bundles are now for sale.

The band will be playing songs from their entire catalog, including deep cuts that haven’t been played in years. With shows not being a thing for a while, the plan is for the band to continue doing this for the foreseeable future. Everything will be live, uncut, and uncensored. As with Mike’s Life in Quarantine sessions earlier this year, this stream will interact with fans and a lot of the banter will be based on things that happen in real time.

Once you have a ticket you can rewatch the livestream for up to one week if you can’t make the live event.

Sponsor: New Film Teenage Badass Released

Teenage Badass

Teenage Badass is a music-centric comedy revolving around the fictional rock band Stylo and the Murder Dogs. It was released today for rent or purchase.

Set in 2006, we follow Brad (Mcabe Gregg), a teenage drummer who dreams of making it big in a rock band. Brad and his single-mother Rae (Julie Ann Emery) struggle to get by as Brad refuses to give up. On a fluke, Brad joins a new band fronted by singer/songwriter Kirk Stylo. They land a shot to play on a local news show. With the town buzzing from their performance, Brad’s dreams inch closer when they’re asked to record with Jordan (Kevin Corrigan), a legendary local producer. Just as everything seems to be falling into place, a series of chaotic events threaten everything.

Also, keep an eye out for cameos from Jimmy Eat World’s Jim Adkins and The Maine’s Pat Kirch.

Sponsor: My Thanks to La Roma

LA Roma

A huge thank you to La Roma for sponsoring the website and newsletter this week. Last week the band released their new song “So Long, Adieu” at Spotify and Apple Music. The band hails from Newcastle, Australia and have a sound that calls to mind a mixture of Jimmy Eat World, Anberlin, and Manchester Orchestra. This feels very in the wheelhouse for just about anyone that likes the kind of music we cover on a daily basis.

Keep your eyes peeled for their debut EP coming in early 2021, but for now, check out the new single.
