Episode 219: Noctara

On episode 219 of March Forth with Mike Bauman, Mike chats with Landon Siebens and Brady Mueller of Noctara! Based in Nashville, Tennessee, Noctara is bringing new blood to the modern rock and alternative metal landscape with their collective experience in the music industry. Comprised of Siebens (guitar), Mueller (drums), and Brandon Elgar (vocals), Noctara released their first single entitled "7 SECOND HOLD" on April 16th. With heavy musicality and a gnarly chorus to compliment Elgar's introspective lyrics, "7 SECOND HOLD" landed on both SiriusXM Octane's Test Drive, as well as the "Locals Only" segment of Nashville's own 102.9 The Buzz. After playing their first live gig together at The Cobra in East Nashville in late July on a bill that also featured Zhaklina and Dakota, Noctara dropped their second singled entitled "OTC" on August 7th. In this episode, Landon and Brady talk with Mike about the inception of Noctara, including recruiting Brandon (formerly of Palisades), the immediate vibes he brought to their sound, the mighty Sevendust and Landon's lifechanging onstage moment with them at Welcome to Rockville, crafting their sound with the help of Jim Jonsin, the musical synergy they have with Noctara, perseverance in chasing your dreams, and more. This episode also features the aforementioned "OTC" from Noctara, available where you get your music!
