099: Michael Grant & The Assassins

Published: Aug. 7, 2020, 9:13 p.m.

b'Sound Matters episode 099 features Tom\'s conversation with\\xa0Michael Grant\\xa0formerly of\\xa0L.A. Guns and Endeverafter. Michael split from L.A. Guns in 2018 and never looked back. His first solo album (under Michael Grant & The Assassins) titled "Always the Villian" is simply incredible. This 11 song collection contains killer songs, melodies, arrangements, production, and playing top to bottom. Read that again... it\'s rare. On top of it all, Michael is a super cool cat and a ton of fun to talk to. In this livestream episode we discuss Michael\'s lifelong love of drumming (he drums on over half the tracks on this album, as well as handling all the bass, guitars, vocals, AND engineering duties), his perspective on leaving L.A. Guns, the impetus behind the title track, his writing and recording process, and his affinity for his influences, plus much more... one of my favorite conversations in the history of the show!
