Discover Hillhaven, The Supergroup with Ties to Ice Nine Kills & From Ashes to New

We love it when a band comes together to create great music. But what happens when that band that comes together has members of other high profile bands to share their talents with the world even more? That is when we get a great supergroup.Not only do we get a chance today to see how this Avengers-like ensemble came together, but a further in-detph look at how they create music for a project like this. Add in an unfiltered look at the current state of touring for fans to understand the economics of why ticket prices are rising, and you are in for one hell of an episode.Chris Kelly from Hillhaven joins the Chord Progression Podacst. With Hillhaven members having ties to bands like BabyMetal (allegedly), From Ashes To New, Ice Nine Kills, and more, discover this supergroup as we dive into:The origin story from uncertainty on what to do with previously written music, and why this "supergroup" was the way to go.Why the music creation process for Hillhaven is more for Chris to lead, how most songs take a darker and more personal approach, but why the new song This Time Tomorrow looks at a more positive outlook.The unfiltered reality that is touring today, why things are getting more expensive, and a reality check for fans wondering why ticket prices have been going up.We could not have asked from a better episode from Chris, and other members of this band (Mat Madiro of From Ashes To New and Ricky Armellino of Ice Nine Kills) have appeared on the podcast before.
