"Who is Zac Barnett/American Authors - part III?"

The BoatCast is thrilled to welcome back Zac Barnett (of American Authors) to the podcast, where he reminisces about his favorite moments from TRB XXII.

Every Rock Boat is filled with unique moments. Perhaps THE highlight of this last boat was when American Authors played their new album, 'Best Night of My Life' in its entirety- and some of those songs have never been played live since. It was a magical moment for sure. Zac talks the thrill of collaboration and getting up on stage with Lit and singing their song "The Life That I Got".

As for the writing process of American Authors, Zac reflects on the genesis of the band's upcoming album. They had rented a house for 14 days and created most of the music while on site. Inspiration often struck during Zac's morning runs. Armed with an idea, he and the band would hit the studio. This next album is said to be more 'Rock' than any other they've released to date, and seems like a perfect reason to get them back on another boat ASAP. As we eagerly wait for its release, we are certain that American Authors will yet again redefine their sound and astound their fans

During this time, Gable formed a band with classmates Adam and Daniel, and together they recorded their debut EP "The Redding EP."

"Who is Justin Osborne? (of Susto)"

In this episode of The BoatCast, we have the pleasure of hosting Justin Osborne as we explore the fascinating world of SUSTO - a band that has received widespread critical acclaim and built a dedicated fan base through their captivating songs and mesmerizing live performances. Their distinct fusion of rock, folk, psychedelia, and storytelling makes them a perfect match for TRB XXIII.

Their upcoming fifth studio album, titled "My Entire Life," stands as a testament to the transformative power of music. Justin's personal journey, filled with highs and lows, is beautifully captured in this record (pre-save here: http://newwst.com/myentirelife). From witnessing the struggles of family members battling addiction and mental illness to the bliss of falling in love and the optimism of starting anew, each track on the album reflects the myriad of experiences that shape our lives.

Justin shares insights into the band's recording process, which took place at various locations, and the collaborative efforts of longtime producer Wolfgang "Wolfy" Zimmerman, SUSTO co-founders Johnny Delaware and Marshall Hudson, and his wife and co-writer, Caroline Foyle.

"Who is Aric Damm? (of The Brevet) 2023"

"The Rock Boat community is such a powerful community. It really got us started. We would not be where we are playing live because without The Rock Boat - that really started us in that journey..." -Aric Chase Damm

The BoatCast welcomes Aric Damm (frontman / lead vocals) of The Brevet back to the podcast.

The Brevet is an alternative rock band that reminds the BoatCast of Needtobreathe with their amazing lead vocals and high energy performances. Aric discusses what the band has been up to since their last podcast appearance and details the experience of their exciting new KickStarter project. Spoiler: the band was blown away from the reaction on Day 1 of the pledge.

Aric discusses how The Brevet has always been an independent band and how they want to stay rooted to those beliefs while understanding that it's also not easy without the support of a label. Listen for more details as Aric always gives us amazing insight to everything about their music to the graphics behind each of their records.
