KURT REIL of the Gripweeds Interview - Early Clues EP - New Jersey Band

INTERVIEW with KURT REIL of the GRIPWEEDS!
This is his 4th time he's been on the podcast and we talked about the Gripweeds new EP "Early Clues"
Kurt goes over each of the new 3 songs in detail.
 
We also talk about the writing process for the Gripweeds, a little bit about the new album (coming out this summer) and we even somehow mention Bon Jovi.
 
I always love talking to Kurt and I joked that next time it will be his 5th time on the podcast and I'll have to get him a 5 timers jacket (or tshirt).
 
Kurt is a good sport and always has to tolerate some of my stupid jokes.

COURTNEY HADWIN Interview - British Singer / Songwriter - America's Got Talent - New Single Spellbound

Rob had the pleasure of interviewing Courtney Hadwin on Tuesday, Feb 17th.
You might remember Courtney from 2018's America's Got Talent?  
She has since released some singles and a Christmas song (in 2024) and now she's releasing the first single "spellbound" off her debut album!  
No word on when her full length album (of all new material) will be out but Rob did try to get some info out of her.. lol 
If you've never heard of her you have to check her out.  She's a powerhouse on vocals and at the age of 14 she got the golden buzzer from Howie Mandel on AGT!   Her audition video got over 310 million views on YouTube!
*****A LITTLE BIT ABOUT COURTNEY HADWIN
Courtney is a British pop singer and songwriter who first captured international attention as a breakout star on NBC’s America’s Got Talent at only 13 years old. Her unforgettable audition went globally viral, racking up over 310 million views and instantly establishing her as a powerful new voice in music.
At 20, Courtney continues to astound audiences with her extraordinary vocals and unforgettably soulful performances, often prompting comparisons to the legendary Janis Joplin. Courtney’s musical journey began early; as a self-taught artist, she spent countless hours emulating idols such as Tina Turner, Etta James, and James Brown while developing a unique musical personality.
In recent years, Courtney has embraced independence as an artist, releasing several singles, including “Breakable,” “That Girl Don’t Live Here,” “Call Me Back” and “Monsters”, each showcasing the evolution of her sound. Working closely alongside Kevin Bowe, a renowned producer from Minneapolis, Courtney has forged a creative partnership that has empowered her to express herself with authenticity.
Currently, Courtney is in the final stages of recording her debut album. This highly anticipated project promises to blend a diverse set of genres, from pop and soul to blues and rock, all brought together by Courtney’s show-stopping vocal presence.
