What do you do when times get extremely tough? You write emotionally powerful songs about those terrible life experiences. That’s exactly what, Andrew Zamora, and the rest of the gang in Ontario, Canada’s energetic pop punk band, Weigh The Anchor, have done with their latest single, “Medicate”. I was grateful to have talked with Zamora about what the song means to him and about how making wrong turns in life can still lead you in the right direction. This is only the second time I’ve chatted with a band from another country. It made me realize I need to do that more often on the podcast. Enjoy!

Chicago’s Sleep On It was about 10 dates into their, “Pride & Disaster Tour”, when the whole country began locking down because of the Covid-19 Pandemic. Guitarist and vocalist, Jake Marquis, explains what that was like for the band at the time and also what they’ve been up to since the lockdown began in mid-March. I’ve always thought Jake was a genuinely cool guy and he proves that in our conversation. We touch on lighter topics as well including movies, fitness, food and of course, music. Jake also explains what the writing and recording process was like for their most recent album, “Pride & Disaster.” By the way, Sleep On It’s lead vocalist, Zech Pluister, chimes in on the conversation a little too!

Sleep On It’s latest single, “Stay At Home”. They will be donating money from streaming to The World Health Organization.

Also on this episode, I’m very excited to share a rejuvenated version of the Pop-Punk & Pizza Podcast theme song, re-recorded by, Chris DeMakes, of Less Than Jake! LTJ is one of my biggest influences of all time and I’m very grateful that Chris was down to re-record the theme song for me.

The first time I met Devin and Patrick Parker was when they performed a few acoustic songs on the podcast under the name, Parker, in December of 2018. I was quickly roped in with their simple, but emotionally powerful songwriting methods. It’s a style you can instantly connect with in a heartfelt way. Their latest single, “Okay”, under new band name, Til Morning, proves they are taking their songwriting skills to new heights. It’s an anthemic, life-affirming sing-along custom-made for the sunnier days ahead. On this episode, we get a peak into the new era of The Parker Brothers and what lies ahead for Til Morning. I thoroughly believe in this band and their music. They are true to the core. You will not regret supporting them.

Love,

Jacques LaMore

Since the Covid-19 Pandemic reached the United States, several artists have rescheduled tour dates or release dates for new music. However, Chicago punk rock band, Lights Over Bridgeport, decided to push through with the release of their new single, “Morning in Chicago”, and new album, “Better This Way”, dropping May 22nd. Lead vocalist and guitarist, Johnny Hamlin, talked to me last week during a live Facebook stream.

In January of 2020, I announced I would be taking a hiatus from the Pop-Punk & Pizza Podcast due to mental health reasons. I never gave a return date. In fact, I said it would most likely be a long time. With everything going on in the world right now, I decided to end my hiatus much sooner and come back to the podcast. I’m not feeling 100 percent quite yet, but I do feel much better. I want to thank each and everyone of you who have supported me through these rough times recently. I’m truly blessed to have you all in my life and I’m very grateful for you!

This episode is from Sunday, March 24th, 2020. It was recorded during a live stream on Facebook where we talked about the best songs to listen to during the Covid-19 pandemic. Also featured in the podcast are phone calls from Eddy Larson of Eddy and The Arsons, Jake Vaughn, and music producer/engineer, Enoch Jensen.

Thank you again for your continued support of the podcast. I’m so happy to be back with you all. Hope and hygiene are going to get us through this pandemic together. We got this!

Brian Fallon “Sleepwalkers” Album Review

Brian Fallon starts off his album, “Sleepwalkers”, with a very swingy song “If Your Prayers Don’t Get To Heaven”. This song sets the tone for the whole album and gives off a slight Motown type rhythm. Brian follows this song with his initial single released off this album, “Forget Me Not”, which is one of my personal favorites off this album. I would recommend this album for anyone who enjoys albums like, The killers, “Sam’s Town”, Vampire Weekend, “Modern Vampires of the City”, or realistically anything from, The Gaslight Anthem. The fourth song on the album entitled, “Etta James”, slows the album down a little bit but makes you wanna grab the closest person and slow dance. From start to finish this album is very well written and you can just feel the emotion in every song, this is the type of album you just throw on and drive until it’s finished. I throughly enjoyed the musicianship and song writing through this whole album. I don’t think we appreciate Brian Fallon enough as a singer/songwriter. I give this album 4.5 out of 5 pizza slices.

Album Review By,

We Were Sharks “Lost Touch” Album Review

We Were Sharks latest album, “Lost Touch”, is a definite pop punk throw back once you initially listen to this album you get this immediate feeling of New Found Glory and a complete throw back to Drive Thru Records. This album from start to finish flows beautifully and I find myself listening to this album without skipping one song. The album opens up with a heavy hitting ballad, “Beyond Repair”, which was the initial release off this album, which in my opinion was the perfect song to release as a single because it leaves you wanting more. The fifth song on the album is titled, “Stay”, and to me this song kind of serves as the anthem for the album and was perfectly placed. I had been anticipating this album for months since the release of, “Beyond Repair”, and it absolutely delivered. My only two problems with this album are that it was not long enough and that they release 4 of the songs off the album before the release of the album leaving some of the album less of a surprise. I give this album four out of five pizza slices.
