The song featured in the interview is “Listen to the Silence” which was co-written with my good friend, Mike Manning.

I love finding a band that I’ve never heard of and then the totally blow me away.. I was browsing the Amoeba Records website checking out their live streaming of in-store performances thinking that I should pitch them on TriCaster.

The first band that popped up was a French band named “Revolver”.. I started watching the webcast from a technical viewpoint but midway through the first song, I was hooked! WOW! This 3 piece really has bottled magic!

Here is your assignment.. Watch the webcast.. Then follow the link to buy their album.. You won’t be disappointed!
