  • Interview with Christian Hayes
    Apr 22 2025
    We had the pleasure of interviewing Christian Hayes over Zoom video!

    Capitol Records recording artist Christian Hayes has poetically drawn on his life experiences growing up in the foothills of Appalachia since his grandfather gifted him his first journal at seven years old. While his debut EP Last I Love You, released in September, followed Hayes’ journey navigating heartbreak and growing up, he’s now offering an upbeat new song underscoring the beauty of finding love in imperfection with “Wildflower,” available now.

    Self-written by Hayes, the concept for “Wildflower” was born from Hayes’ observation of seeing beauty found in imperfections and embracing uniqueness in love. Recalling how wildflowers are each unique and grow to their own accord, Hayes drew from this inspiration to celebrate the qualities that make them distinctly beautiful.

    “I had family members who I watched struggle a lot with discontent growing up, always striving to find that perfect spouse, rather than being happy with the one they were with,” Hayes reflects. “This song was inspired by that inner conflict, but rather than always striving for perfection where it doesn’t exist, the ‘wildflower’ serves as a metaphor to finding a person who’s right for you, while embracing the beauty in their imperfections.”

    The song comes on the heels of the September release of Last I Love You, which casts a wide net, fusing Americana and folk while bouncing between campfire ballads, cinematic soundscapes and raw, rowdy barn-burners. At the center of that sound is Hayes himself: a wise-beyond-his-years musician who knows he can’t move forward without taking a look at his past.

    Genuine and articulate, Hayes comes from a long line of storytellers that includes his Grandpa Jack – a poet by profession – who gave Christian his first journal. Born and raised in the foothills of Appalachia, Hayes began playing guitar at age eight. After high school, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy Reserve and attended the University of Alabama.

    Hayes recently signed with Capitol Records, as well as with William Morris Endeavor (WME) for booking, Universal Music Publishing Group (UMPG) for publishing, Wildrose Projects for management and Flood Bumstead McCready & McCarthy (FBMM) for business management.

    About Christian Hayes

    Raised in the Appalachian foothills of northern Georgia, Christian Hayes grew up surrounded by southern storytelling. His grandfather — a poet by profession — encouraged him to begin writing in a journal at 7 years old, sparking a habit that would eventually take Hayes to Nashville. A veteran of the US Navy Reserve, Hayes began applying the discipline of his military training to his work as a songwriter, amassing more than 900 original songs by his mid-twenties. Five of those songs appear on Last I Love You, his debut for Capitol Records available now. Produced by Lukas Bracewell and steeped in Hayes' unique version of American roots music, Last I Love You features the viral single “LILY” (which racked up more than 3 million streams before the EP’s official release), the anthemic “Black Gold” and a mix of effortless melodies, cinematic folk and rowdy, barn-burning Americana.

  • Interview with Highly Suspect
    Apr 15 2025
    We had the pleasure of interviewing Highly Suspect over Zoom video!

    Never content to follow, Highly Suspect push rock music forward by trusting their instincts and raising a middle finger to everything else. The multi-GRAMMY® Award-nominated and gold-certified band - Johnny Stevens [vocals, guitar], Ryan Meyer [drums, vocals], Rich Meyer [bass, vocals], Matt Kofos [guitar] and Mark Schwartz [keyboards/guitars] - don’t just talk about burning the rules and breaking the mold; they actually do so.

    The band’s chemically imbalanced mix of gritty guitars, haunting piano, off-kilter synths, hip-hop production, cinematic vision, and beautifully possessed vocals transformed them into a phenomenon beloved by a diehard global fanbase known as “MCID” [My Crew Is Dope]. After grinding it out as an underground curiosity, they scraped a path to mainstream infamousness with their 2015 full-length debut, Mister Asylum. It earned a GRAMMY® Award nomination in the category of “Best Rock Album” as the single “Lydia” received a nomination for “Best Rock Song” was certified gold by the RIAA.

    The 2016 follow-up The Boy Who Died Wolf roared to life with the gold-selling “My Name Is Human,” which catapulted to #1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart and garnered a GRAMMY® Nomination for “Best Rock Song.” 2019’s MCID affirmed them as the rare outfit who could collaborate with Young Thug and Gojira on the same album. Loudwire hailed the latter among the “50 Best Rock Albums of 2019.”

    With hundreds of millions of streams and sold out shows on multiple continents, Highly Suspect charged ahead of the pack again on 2022’s The Midnight Demon Club with no compromises and no apologies as they challenged rock to be dangerous and maybe even life-changing again. This past summer the band shared their latest opus, As Above, So Below, is out now via Roadrunner/300/Elektra

  • Interview with Bo Staloch
    Apr 7 2025
    We had the pleasure of interviewing Bo Staloch over Zoom video!

    Capitol Records will release Bo Staloch’s The Garden, a stunning six-song showcase of visceral alt-folk and Americana. Family means everything to the Austin-born, Nashville-based singer-songwriter – it was their unconditional love and support that encouraged him to pour his soul into music while he was still in high school. On the EP’s profound title track, released today, Staloch pays it forward, declaring to the next generation, “When the sky falls down give the pieces to me / I’ll hold you like the moon til you fall asleep.” Listen to “The Garden” HERE.

    Calling himself “the luckiest person in the world,” Bo Staloch explains the inspiration for his new single. “My family has always been the most important part of my life, and being surrounded by so much love and support, it's kind of impossible not to think of me being a parent someday. I actually think about my future kids a lot. It is a little weird that I'm 19 and I'm thinking about that, but I've seen how much effort my parents put into creating a space for me to flourish. So, I'm just like, ‘Whatever I'm doing right now, I'm really doing it for my kids.’”

    He wrote “The Garden,” which serves as a mission statement for the EP, at his family home. To help him mold The Garden, Bo teamed with producer Andrew Wells (Phoebe Bridgers, Teddy Swims, Halsey), working out of his Laurel Canyon-facing home studio. That secluded setting, steeped in folk-rock history, lent a peaceful atmosphere to some emotionally stormy material. Staloch now calls it his “favorite place in the world.” It felt like home. For the closing track, “Oh God, Were You Ever,” he teamed up with producer Joshua Block (Jamestown Revival, Leon Bridges).

    Staloch recently supported Houndmouth on their U.S. tour. In May, he’ll join Ashe on the road. Tickets are available here. Touring for his first time ever in 2024, Staloch sold out headline shows in London and Dublin and supported the likes of Wyatt Flores, Richy Mitch & TCM, John Vincent III and Hans Williams.

    The Luna Collective observed, “2025 is looking to be the year of Bo Staloch…Full of powerful acoustic guitar and heartfelt lyricism, Bo Staloch’s music feels like it deserves to be listened to while sun-kissed and driving amongst the most cinematic of scenery…a special sonic blend of country, folk, and americana.” Atwood Magazine observed, “Bo Staloch basks in stomp-and-holler bliss…”

Tom Higgenson

Bringin' it Backwards is so good! Loved getting to hear about his label ( Humans were Here.) Excited to hear more from his solo career, Million Miler.
