(in)doors with The Nova Kicks
It's not a phase! The Nova Kicks are kicking it up a notch! On this episode, Asher sits down with Luis (Lu) Prado, Enrique Sandoval, Annie Kelly, and Brandon Fierro to learn more about one of the most beloved DIY bands in the Colorado scene and the most talked about band in the (in)doors series. The Nova Kicks classify their style as "a destructive sound wave of distorted grooves and soul", not sticking too closely to any one genre and embracing the chaotic energy they bring into each and every performance. The Nova Kicks kick back, get down and personal, and open up about serious and important topics like living with anxiety, using music as a creative (and healthy) outlet, how COVID has challenged brought new challenges into their lives and what each band member looks forward to most when shows come back (plus all of us constantly interrupting each other because we can't see when someone starts talking). This episode features The Nova Kicks' newest track "The Phase" off their newest EP, "Son of a Stray" (which includes a super secret bonus song at the end)! You can stream "Son of a Stray" on all music platforms. Photography credit: Jeremy Baxter Special thank you to Matt Gusmerotti for producing this series.

The band mates Alex Matis, Everett Daddario, Jake Bondy, Aldo Beltran, (and Gus Gaggle) open up about their struggles from COVID-19's impact: everything from cancelling a tour to Germany to postponing their newest album, to day to day struggles working at [redacted grocery store].

(in)doors with Seauwen

(in)doors with The Sickly Hecks
[The Sickly Hecks are] like Beethoven, if he wasn't a total f******* nerd." On this episode Ray, Nick, Zach, and Stevie Heck sit down with Asher and open up about their experience with Social Distancing, going underground, postponing a record, fears from the pandemic, and being placed on hiatus. The following message is a direct statement from drummer, Stevie [Hartman] Heck: "We started isolating ourselves in December (back before isolation was cool) in order to write new songs for a full length album. For the most part, this meant not playing shows except for a couple that we had booked before we went underground. When we are regularly playing shows it is hard to divide up our practice time and energy between rehearsing a set list of older songs and writing new material. We wrote about 12 songs that we were pleased with and planned on recording them between mid-March and early-April. Ray, Nick, and I were very excited to produce and record this album ourselves as we have done some recordings in the past where someone else is recording/producing it and in my opinion, and I think Ray and Nick would agree, it makes the final product feel somewhat alien from us. It's like you are creating this thing and you have ideas of how it sounds and feels in that moment, but you also are hearing some things and have some ideas that are floating around in the ether and are transitory. I think being able to transform those ephemeral moments into tangible parts of a song is an extremely valuable and rewarding piece of the creative process. Sometimes when you have an outside producer or recording engineer working with you, you resign this creative function to them (explicitly or implicitly) and they may pull some things from the ether that are amazing or sometimes not so amazing. Suffice it to say, we wanted complete creative control as a part of our development and transformation as musicians, as friends, and as persons, both in a group and individual sense. But I digress... Anyways, we were set to record the drum tracks during this week (Spring Break). At first, COVID-19 seemed to be simplifying things and clearing our schedules for us. We were supposed to have a show in Denver, Ray and I were supposed to play our last show with Janet Earth before AJ moved, and Zach (Visconti) and I were supposed to play an EP release show and then go on tour with our other band safekeeper. But everything was canceled. Ray and I were working out a bunch of details for spending a few days at my house to record drums and then more information developed about the coronavirus. So we made the decision to postpone recording until this was all over. Special thanks to Matt Gusmerotti for producing this series.
