Originally a resident of Metairie, Louisiana, Brian Patton can recall his fascination with music watching musicians like Roy Clark and Jerry Reid on Hee-Haw. His childhood stints with piano and clarinet were interrupted and forever changed by KISS. Guitar took hold, as did Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin and others. And this began Brian Patton's ascent to an otherworldly thrash metal legend. Beyond his origins, we delve into touring with GWAR and other bands, victories and tragedies out on the road, and the many iterations of band members over the years. Join us for a great show!

Jorge Pesantes (currently of The Dreadfields) dabbled in percussion and harmonica, but life repeatedly brought being being a vocalist to his doorstep. Drawing inspiration from life and grooves from the many bands in which he's been, his rhetoric has been light but his presence has always been loud. To the table, he's brought a different style each time, a cadence that complimented the band's work, and an energy on stage that pulls in the crowd. Join us as we reflect on his history and look ahead at his future in music.

Born in Brussels, Belgium, singer/ songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Ghalia Volt was a music enthusiast and free spirit growing up. The more she sought out and found music, the more she wanted to learn. From psychobilly to jump blues, the quest became of greater pursuit than following the crowd. We get a glimpse of European culture and her experience emigrating to the U.S. to eventually tour the world. Listen in on the life and times of the roots, blues, and rock sensation, Ghalia Volt.
