Jake and Corey take a field trip to Manchester Music Hall in Lexington, Kentucky to sit down with one of the best drummers in modern metal, Jake Smelley from heavy hitters Gideon. Jake talks with the guys about the bands history and his contributions to the band outside of playing the drums. Wouldn't be a proper episode without some good old surprises as the direct support bands fired up in the middle of the recording!

Welcome back to The Hang for season 2! In our first episode back we are taking a deep dive into music and serving the art of the artists we support with Nate Felty, drummer for one of country musics biggest new stars, Zach Top.

After a looong break from the holidays and the rush to book up 2024, Jake and Corey catch back up on all the new things including their thoughts on Louder Than Life 2024. They also reminisce on some old pranks with some old friends.

Episode 7: Josh Toomey joins the hang to talk podcasting, music festivals, and some old bandmates.

Listen to us welcome our good friend and hometown hero Cody Ash, Drummer for Grammy Nominated Artist Jelly Roll!!!! We take it waaaaay back to the early days in Louisvilles rock scene, our dreams of being professional baseball players, drum circles, bus bathroom rules and regulations, and how to keep the music dream alive!!!!

Ever wonder what it's like to sign a record deal straight out of high school? What about having a #1 song on The Billboard charts one day, and then choose to walk away from the band? What does it take to make music a career? Jesse Vest, Bassist from Days of The New, Tantric, Blisskreig, and The Crashers joins Corey and Jake to discuss the inner workings of being in a band with some rather interesting folks. We discuss how to manage success at an early age, how to bounce back from what most would feel as complete devastation, and the importance of just being a good band member. It's a long one, but you're going to hear some great stuff!
