Tesla

Listen to "Brian Wheat Talks About Shock From Tesla" on Spreaker. The legendary American rock band TESLA will release their new studio album, SHOCK, worldwide on March 8 via UMe. The album is available now for preorder in CD, digital, black vinyl, and limited edition translucent blue vinyl formats; its electrifying lead single, “Shock,” is available now for streaming and for immediate download with album preorder. Produced and co-written by Phil Collen (Def Leppard), SHOCK is TESLA’s eighth studio album. TESLA is actively touring across North America, Europe, and elsewhere around the globe throughout 2019. Preorder SHOCK and check out the album’s lead single, “Shock”: https://TESLA.lnk.to/SHOCK One of the world’s most celebrated and enduring rock bands with a diehard, loyal fanbase, TESLA has enjoyed international chart, radio, and tour success for nearly 35 years, with global album sales topping 15 million. That they are still roaring and soaring should be no surprise. That’s just how they are built. TESLA may have been born in the mid ‘80s eruption of leather, spandex and big hair, but this band has never been about those things. Their bluesy, soulful sound is strongly embedded in the roots of organic, authentic 1970s rock and roll. The same roots that produced bands like the Allman Brothers, Grand Funk Railroad, AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Aerosmith. TESLA’s legacy is alive and well as they continue to record and sellout venues all over the world. As worn in and comfortable as your favorite pair of jeans, as tough and dependable as your coolest leather jacket, TESLA endures because they are a celebration of the greatest spirits of rock and roll. TESLA is always ready to rock, and they invite everyone to join them with SHOCK.

Taking Care Of The Elements

Listen to "Taking Care Of The Elements" on Spreaker. Maybe it's the Martial Artist in me. It was drilled into our systems of learning to love and respect all living things. The average passerby naturally thinks it's the human we're speaking of. No not really. All living things. Trees, spiders, ugly ass birds and every single invisible element you can't see but somehow has gotten into that head and heart you're forced to carry everyday. On this podcast we step on the toes of what's planted in your mind body and soul. The goal is to take care of what's taking care of you. The other living elements that make you. Yeah I get it. You're in control of the steps taken. Tell that to the trees that sacrificed their place in history to make the pages you studied to become. Learning to love and trust all living things isn't a lifestyle its a walk in life. A lifestyle can be changed. Your walk is always in forward motion. I walk into this recording studio every morning at 5:30 only to stare out a window overlooking a forest hidden by darkness. I look forward to the first stream of light that will reach through the limbs of these trees. Somewhere out there an owl will appear. I'll see deer butts before 7am then spiderwebs that caught other insects to be devour later today. Taking care of the elements. Put focus on all things that make you who you are.

Soman Chainani

Listen to "Soman Chainani Releases A Crystal Of Time" on Spreaker. Forget what you think you know about fairy tales and step into The School for Good and Evil—where things are not always what they seem. In Soman Chainani’s New York Times bestselling series, two best friends will find that the only way out of a fairy tale is to live through it. Soman Chainani practically created his own fairy-tale major when studying at Harvard. Growing up, Soman felt outside of the "mainstream" -- one of the only kids of color at school; wrestling with being gay; a skinny, sensitive kid who didn't fit in with boys. He loved fairy tales, Harry Potter, and Disney most of all -- but didn't see any parts of him reflected. The School for Good and Evil is the corrective; it’s a series for all kids who feel the same way Soman did -- and now lets them be the heroes of a big, inclusive world. It's why the fandom for the series is so big and passionate: everything from SGE weddings to tattoos to fanart. SGE spotlights the forgotten kids. Soman tutored kids for 10 years in New York City and realized that for every 'good', kid, there was one struggling or left behind. The 'bad' kids. Soman realized these are the kids left out of fantasy storytelling -- the kids who never get to be heroes. So the SGE characters -- "Good" and "Evil" -- were inspired by the hugely diverse students Soman taught. The book series shows us how to talk with kids about evil. Kids grow up with the same narrative again and again: Good always wins. It's what every superhero movie teaches -- Evil can't stand a chance against truth and justice. And yet, in the real world, Evil wins all the time. The School for Good and Evil is a series that isn't afraid to talk to kids about Evil and what it means -- and why "villains" often have their own stories that deserve to be told. For the first time, kids aren't spoonfed who to root for. And in the process, they learn that Good and Evil not only have blurred lines -- but they can also look exactly the same.

Dylan Gerald

Listen to "Dylan Gerard NBC's The Voice Throwback 2017" on Spreaker. Dylan comes from a very creative family. His dad plays guitar and is a high school drama teacher, so both Dylan and his sister loved doing musical theater productions growing up. After high school, Dylan started a pop rock band called Don't Sigh Daisy, and had the opportunity to open for Switchfoot, Young the Giant and Fun. Despite having some success, the band ultimately broke up as the members started getting married and having kids. Then in 2013, shortly after the band broke up, Dylan's sister got into a bad car accident. She was hit on the interstate and flew across the median into oncoming traffic, causing a traumatic brain injury. After almost losing his sister, Dylan decided to pursue a career in the medical field. With music no longer a priority, he got his CNA license in 2014, and currently works at St. Vincent's Hospital in Jacksonville as a certified nursing assistant. When not at work, he is playing at restaurants and small venues on the weekends, but The Voice is the first opportunity he's had in a long time to fully focus on his music.
