Welcome to the 10th episode of the Power/Less Podcast!
In this episode, I speak to James Lascelles, singer, frontman, and mastermind behind the Finnish progressive metal band, WHEEL.
James talks about their newest EP "Rumination," and the more straightforward approach to the songs as compared to the band's more proggy full album releases, "Moving Backwards" and "Resident Human."
We talk about the inspiration behind the heavy track "Blood Drinker," where James pulls inspiration from for the band's music, where a lot of the tones and textures come from for their recordings, and the ups and downs for a full time international touring band over the last few years.
I was very happy to have James on and I hope you enjoy the episode!

In this episode I talk to Kelsey Montanez, singer songwriter in the Chicago area. Kelsey has had a hell of a trajectory when it comes to music, from starting at an early age, to a debut EP and record contract in 2013 and featuring Chance the Rapper on a song, to making the decision to go independent. Kelsey talks about the pressures of that era and what lead her to make a decision to leave her deal and become an independent artist, as well as how the pandemic (and a very cool music residency job in Chicago) helped give her the drive to get back into releasing music and playing seriously again after almost a decade.

Her new single, "Sold My Soul," talks in good detail about these things, and it's also a hell of a song!
Catch Kelsey and her band at Reggies on 01/21 in Chicago, and look for information on their upcoming shows in the future at her instagram handle:
