Rocktober 2025

In her first solo episode in a while, Sara J. takes the mic to share the whirlwind that was Rocktober — a month packed with music, milestones, and meaning. From an event that marked the culmination of a year’s hard work, to an impromptu adventure to the Away From Home Festival with her daughter, multiple border-crossing trips, finally seeing Steve Hackett live, and celebrating the exhibit opening of friend and iconic photographer Richard Beland — it’s been a ride. Alongside major growth with the company and a wave of new content, Sara also takes a moment to reflect on the past 12 months — and the reminder that no matter what’s happening in the world, music is always there.
