Ep. 14 of ComicPop Visits with Young Lyons’ Lead Singer John Lyons

Ep. 14 of ComicPop Visits with Young Lyons’ Lead Singer John Lyons

Join us as we visit with John Lyons, lead singer of the band Young Lyons.  During the visit we discuss Young Lyons’ EP Crash Course.  One of our discussion points is the lyrics to the song “Girlfriends Got Me Down”, which centers around the use of an explicit word.  So this is your warning if you are listening in a public place or at work you might want to wear headphones.  However, don’t let this dissuade you from listening to the visit, because it was a great discussion, not just on how lyrics can effect a song and make it have more emotion by using different words, but the bands style, influences and the music industry in general.  We had a great time and enjoyed having John on the show.  You can click the link below to listen to the visit, go to our website, www.comicpoplibrary.com, or catch it on our iTunes feed when it uploads a little later.

I want to thank Karla MacDonald, of the Muse Box, for coordinating this visit.  You can check out their site below along with Young Lyons site and Facebook page.

Ep. 13 of ComicPop Visits with Metropolis America’s Lead Vocalist Cristian Mora

Ep. 13 of ComicPop Visits with Metropolis America’s Lead Vocalist Cristian Mora

In this episode April, Chris and Richard visit with the lead vocalist and bass player Cristian Mora, of the band Metropolis America.  Cristian was kind enough to take time out of his busy schedule to talk with us about the band’s music and current project for the Summer with their “Cold Pop” Tracks.  We had a great time and enjoyed having him on the show.  You can click the link below to listen to the visit, go to our website, www.comicpoplibrary.com, or catch it on our iTunes feed when it uploads a little later.

After you listen to the show, check out the links below to Metropolis America’s FaceBook page and their website where Cristian commented that listeners can download their music at no cost!  You can’t beat great music at that price and it shows how serious the band is about sharing their music with their fans.  The site also has their music videos that you can watch and you can sign up for their e-newsletter to get updated information on the band, when it happens.

I want to thank Margo Drgos, of the MuseBox, for helping behind the scenes to make this visit possible.

MiniPop Ep. 1: April’s on the Radio!

MiniPop Ep. 1: April’s on the Radio!

Welcome to the first episode of what we are going to call MiniPop’s.  Minipops are going to be shorter recordings about stories that take place between our regular recordings or short reviews that we don’t have time for during the regular show.

For our first MiniPop April was invited to join Bruce Enrietto, as a Co-Host, of his “Bruce in the Morning Show” on Q97 Continuous Country, in Garden City, Kansas.  Bruce was kind enough to record segments of the show so April could share them with ComicPop’s audience.  So thank you to Bruce and !97 and if you are in the Garden City, Kansas area be sure to listen to Q97 Continuous Country and Bruce in the Morning.  Click on the link below to listen to the show, find it on our website, www.comicpoplibrary.com, or wait until later today and it will be up on our iTunes feed.

Thank to everyone out there for your continued support and remember you can always e-mail us with your questions, comments or recommendations at admin@comicpoplibrary.com.

Ep. 12 of ComicPop Visits with Lolita Dark’s Lead Singer, Ray

Hello everyone and welcome to ComicPop Visits, Episode 12.  Today we sit down and visit with Lolita Dark’s lead singer, Ray.  Ray was kind enough to take a break in her busy schedule and visit with April, Richard and Matt.  It was a blast talking with her and we enjoyed having her on the show.

Ray mentioned Lolita Dark’s new music video for the song “Zesshou”.  It was before the actual release date so we held on to this visit until well after Zesshou’s music video’s official release date.  Click here to view the video on YouTube, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=io7GYVycgE8.  “Zesshou” is the featured song for this visit and then when Episode 36 of ComicPop Library is released we will have samples of three other songs from their debut album Tokyo Status.

You can listen to the visit below or on iTunes when it gets picked up on our Feed later today.  Thank you to everyone for your continued support and keep spreading the word about us.

Ep 1 of ComicPop MiniCast: Ginger and the Ghost

Hello everyone and welcome to a ComicPop MiniCast.  This recording was during Episode 30, but we had to drop it from the show due to time restraints.  Therefore, we are putting it up as a MiniCast.

In this MiniCast the ComicPop Crew received an e-mail from Caitlin Pasko, of the MuseBox.  The MuseBox has been keeping our blog appraised of indy music artists and the product they are producing.  Caitlin asked the Crew what we thought of a particular artist they represent, Ginger and the Ghost.

The ComicPop Crew gives our feedback on Ginger and the Ghost’s “One Type of Dark”.  The intro and outro for the MiniCast features another of Ginger and the Ghost’s songs “Where Wolf”.
