Written By Neil Shumate, OOTB Publications   After more than thirty years as a band and having an all original lineup since forming in 1993, platinum-selling band Sister Hazel remains stronger than ever and they continue to release hit songs. The Gainesville, Florida-based quintet just released a new single titled “All Goes By So Fast,” which was co-written with lead vocalist, guitarist Ken Block’s 18-year-old daughter, Alaina.  About the new single, Block said: “As I sat down to write with my youngest daughter, who is now a senior in high school, we couldn't ignore how swiftly life was passing us by. What started as a straightforward track evolved into something uniquely different from our previous recordings. I absolutely LOVE it!"  The single will be included on their forthcoming 11th album, releasing Nov. 15 via Rock Ridge Music.

  Written By Neil Shumate, OOTB Publications Since releasing their timeless single “Bodies” in 2001, Drowning Pool has remained a trademark name in modern rock music. After that song, the band released six full length albums, including their most recent in 2022:  Strike A Nerve .  Last year, longtime vocalist Jason Moreno departed the band and SoiL vocalist Ryan McCombs returned to Drowning Pool after being away from the band as their previous vocalist of twelve years.  The band feels renewed and they recently announced the No Authority Tour, a 19-date Sept.-Oct. tour alongside A Killers Confession, Above Snakes, The Failsafe.  Guitarist and backing vocalist CJ Pierce—original member since the band’s 1996 formation—discusses McCombs’ return, new music on the way, longevity, the upcoming tour, and more in this OOTB interview.  With a catalogue of music that dates back to 2001, how does the band decide on a setlist and what songs can fans expect to hear on this upcoming fall tour?

  More than just another northwest Ohio band, REDFAN is the culmination of lifelong friendships and a deep passion for music. The trio would tell you that the second best compliment they ever received was how evident it was from their performance that they were long time friends. The best one was that they sound "kinda like Queens of the Stone Age" Eric (bass), Will (drums) and Tyler (guitar) are childhood buddies who were born almost too late to be called "90's kids.” They were raised on the pop-punk craze of the early 2000s. While the trained ear can hear that influence, their style takes notes from every genre of rock and beyond. The three have been playing music together since middle school, but came together under the REDFAN flag officially in 2017. Since then, they have honed in on their style, and are eager to keep writing, playing, and, above all else, having fun.
