Episode 331: Ovtlier

Joey Arena from Ovtlier returns to the Chord Progression Podcast, and he brings Mike along for the ride. Ovtlier is playing Day 2 of When We Were Hungry Fest, so we talk all about the band getting on the bill, why they feel the vibes of Warped Tour for this festival, and a potential cookie race in Vegas. We also talk about the band rebuilding their team to make 2023 their year, their next single pushing on radio, and how rock and metal went from being about attitude to more about image. Always a great conversation with Ovtlier, this does not disappoint.   Find Ovtlier Online: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ovtlier Twitter: https://twitter.com/ovtlierband Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ovtlier/ Instagram (Joey): https://www.instagram.com/joeyarena/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJhVbVowMtVD9YdnFFT0bTA Website: https://www.ovtlier.co Merch: https://www.ovtlier.co/merch The American Psycho Ovtlier Tee: https://www.ovtlier.co/merch/o-face-tee Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/33EsLV9XuU86eBafBHYL0G?si=c43JM1E9QsenNgXb71GauA Apple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/ovtlier/1231706800 Get 20% OFF @manscaped + Free Shipping with promo code CPP at https://www.manscaped.com #ad #manscapedpod We Are Sponsoring WHEN WE WERE HUNGRY FESTIVAL: https://whenwewerehungryfestival.com GET YOUR TICKETS NOW!   Follow us on social media!   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chordprogressionpodcast   Twitter: https://twitter.com/cppodofficial   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chordprogressionpodcast/   Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@chordprogressionpodcast   YouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UCqRKZCDMcFHIYbJaLQMfDbQ   Chord Progression Podcast (Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/show/53XWPGrIUvgavKF5Fm6SLk   Chord Progression Podcast (Apple Podcast): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/chord-progression/id1454876657   Chord Progression Podcast (Amazon): https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/b8dad803-444c-4a73-8aa5-67b4fc43f4ba   Chord Progression Podcast (iHeart Radio): https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-chord-progression-70632531/   Podcast Webpage: https://mysongoftheday.com/my-song-of-the-day-rock-2000-today/chord-progression-podcast/   Intro: (0:00) Welcome Back Ovtlier & Band Updates: (5:00) The Announcement of New Music & New Team Focus: (6:56) Living Dead's Fan Interaction Live: (10:25) Looking Forward to When We Were Hungry Fest: (12:51) Rock & Metal Prioritizing Image over Attitude: (18:33) Separating Art from the Artist, Not Idolizing the Artist: (26:00) Kevin's Theory of Online Interaction Causing Increased Idolization: (32:16) Back to Tony Bennett: (42:29) How Ovtlier Ended Up on When We Were Hungry Fest & Supporting It: (45:55) "Show Me Your O Face" Shirt Universe: (58:20) Making 2023 the Year of Ovtlier: (1:00:51) Closing It Out: (1:16:56)
