Hanging On Sunset
by Hanging On Sunset
No matter where or what time, the world has always brought forth artists who challenge & push the limits they see in it. And nothing has proved this more than the rebels who’ve defined the times we nostalgically recall of rock n’ roll. Rock n’ roll is still alive and we prove it. In every interview is captured the essence of an old soul in the modern age - beyond the boulevard and the stage we look into the minds of tomorrow’s rock n’ roll stars. The up-and-coming artists we seek reflect the rebellion of rock n’ roll past - they are here now, not for long in hiding. Come hang with us.

Season 3 Episode 9 // SCOUT GILLETT
If you're looking for a singer who isn't afraid to be raw, honest, and unapologetic in their music, then you need to know about Scout Gillett. I got to watch her perform solo at the Zebulon towards the end of last year, and I was moved to tears. That doesn't happen a lot those days for me. Her...

During a flight from Paris the other day, my friend David, who is also the owner of our new label Team Nowhere, listened to the podcast. When he landed, he called me and said, "I have figured out what you are doing with the podcast". Curious, I inquired, “What is it that I am doing?". With his...

Season 3 Episode 4 // RONBOY
Hi Sunset people. Or should I call you Sunseters? Sunseties? I think it’s time I find you a name. You know, like the Swifties for Taylor Swift, or like the Avocados for Billie Eilish. I think you deserve a name. Some of you have been listening to me for 2 years now and I think you deserved to be...

Season 3 Episode 3 // KIT MAJOR
I’m not gonna lie, I’m not a huge fan of pop music. That said, I must admit I'm not totally immune to the genre. I've been spotted dancing to Taylor Swift occasionally. Over the summer, I might (according to unreliable witnesses) have sang Britney's Baby One More Time at the karaoke. In my world,...
-
Season 3 Episode 2 // ATTA BOY
Atta Boy are a bit of an anomaly. Everything they do goes against the rules of the data-driven, social media age we live in. They don't post constantly on social platforms, they don't tour, they don't release a new song every six weeks. In fact, they didn't even promote their first album when it...

Season 2 Episode 7 // ALEXA DARK - A film noir soundtrack
Alexa Dark has only two songs out but it was enough to make a lasting impression on us as she is somehow creating a bridge between Adele’s sophisticated pop music and Chris Isaac’s moody and anachronistic bluesy ambiances. But with « Blind Faith » and « Fate To Black And Blue », Alexa is also...

S8NT ELEKTRIC is a pretty young band yet, they're already playing festivals! It's crazy to think that they formed about 8 months ago and they already achieved so much on their own. Because, that's one of the keys to their early success, they like to do everything by themselves. They book their…

-
Season 1 - Episode 13 // Pete Molinari & Mila Spigolon - It must be so cool to be you
I read somewhere that Bruce Springsteen and Jack White are fans of Pete Molinari. I’m not surprised he would seduce such seasoned songwriters because Pete is accomplishing kind of a magic trick with his music. With his songs and words, he transports his listeners to another era where songwriters...

When we asked Machinekit what they did to save rock n' roll, they couldn't care less because, at the end of the day, they're really trying to save Techno. Joke aside, it says a lot about them. I had the feeling that "Rock" is a label that scares them. What really matters for them is the DIY...
