Local Loft Episode 222

This new edition of the most comprehensive podcast covering the extensive Chicago area and Illinois original metal, punk alternative rock, progressive rock and power pop scene is a SAVE situation all around. We'll dig deeply into Save The Rock fest, which will financially help four prominent venues (Reggie's, Cobra Lounge, Livewire and Liar's Club) who lost a lot of money due to long periods of COVID cancellations and restrictions during the prolonged pandemic period. We've saved a feature spot for sludge and doom metal, especially featuring veteran Chicago metal band Pale Horseman. I talk with singer and guitarist Andre Almaraz about their upcoming gig at Save The Rock Fest,April 30th at Cobra. I've also saved a beer raising good time in The Kat 10.5 studio, ten years ago this week when swamp rockers Convoy trucked into unleash their second explosive patriotic album, Blue Collar America. So rock out Gung HO!
