At Seismic Dance Event, I was able to sit down with Sam Wolfe, an artist and producer from Atlanta, for a candid discussion about his steady rise up the techno charts and how his music has been influenced by hard work, good karma, and being at the right place, right time. Sam’s personality lends to big beats with big releases that are infectious when he’s playing and can be easily seen and felt on the dance floor.
We talk about his manifestation mindset and being grateful to play all over the world, his growth from show to show, and one of the most entertaining rapid fire question rounds I’ve ever done.

On today’s show, I have Anthony Cardinale aka Avision, a techno and house producer & DJ from New York, who grew up in the club culture with an early start on the turntables at the age of 12. Avision has been one of my favorite artists for years and he’s known for his big beats and high energy tracks. He’s had releases with some of the biggest names in the industry: Carl Cox, Maceo Plex, Victor Calderone and Coyu to name a few.
We talk about his supportive family and producing music from his home studio, playing to 3,000 kids on teen nights at the age of 15 while hustling on the streets of NYC with his crew to promote his shows. Avision’s humble nature, unmatched work ethic, and commitment to his NYC roots has made him one of the most respected artists in the industry.

On today’s show, I have music duo, Hello Yes, consisting of guitarist Mitch Bell and saxophonist Aaron Leibowitz, birthed during off time on the road with electronic artist Zhu, who they continue to perform and collaborate with. With a new EP out titled, “Lost Signal”, they are constantly evolving and fine tuning their sound, taking influences from tour life and playing all over the world on festival and concert stages alike.
We talked about my awkward first meeting back on Zhu’s tour bus with Mitch and Ronny in 2018, uncommon fan gifts received on tour, the evolution of their “Hello Yes” sound and when they know a song is finished. They also discuss their first performance at “Lightning in a Bottle” this year with Ronny recapping his first festival experience there 10 years ago, and headlining the main stage with Zhu the previous year. Get to know “Hello Yes” and make sure to follow them for tour announcements and new song releases!

On today’s “Concert Queen Connect”, we have Dave Navarro , best known as a member of rock band, “Jane’s Addiction” and mental health activist, speaking about his “Duel Diagnosis” immersive art exhibition on display at West Chelsea Contemporary till April 17th.

Thank you to Dave Navarro and his co-creator, PADHiA @unfukyourself for creating a mental health movement through their art and make sure to read the placards accompanying the art! Make sure to give them all a follow and support their “Duel Diagnosis” movement.
Check out the “Dual Diagnosis” art exhibit with Al Diaz, at the West Chelsea Contemporary located at 1009 W 6th St #120, Austin, TX 78703 from now until April 17th!! *Open to the public!

On today’s show, learn how Shawn Ullman worked with Dolly Parton’s team to partner with Blockchain Creative Labs, and bring Dolly Parton to her first-ever appearance at SXSW and launch “Dollyverse”, her own NFT collection of her “Run, Rose, Run” album, and a limited series of Dolly-inspired NFT artwork.
“What is an NFT album and why should Artists do one?” “How is Dolly Parton performing ON the Blockchain?” “I don’t want to harm the environment with this new technology!!!” You spoke… I listened and I’m excited to share this SXSW edition of “Concert Queen Connect” with Shawn Ullman of Blockchain Creative Labs, who is the inaugural Blockchain sponsor of SXSW, to really zero in on how this will change the future of the music and entertainment industry.
Please remember: We are in the FIRST inning of this so if you aren’t familiar or feeling like you’re left behind, you’re not. This is similar to the internet movement in 1990’s where many people didn’t understand it but I HIGHLY suggest you watch this to the end to educate yourself as an Artist, Producer, Creative and Concert & Festival goer.
Blockchain Creative Labs is located at Trinity Hall, on 5th & Trinity, and is open to the public till Sunday, March 13th, and then Dolly Parton will be at ACL Live speaking about the project and then a live performance immediately after on Friday, March 18th.
Enjoy this special SXSW episode of ‘Concert Queen Connec’t!

On today’s show, I have the man, the myth, the legend, Josh Donaldson, founder of “When The Music Stops” and former tour manager of the World’s Biggest DJ, and at one point, “Las Vegas’s hand to shake” in the scene. Josh has toured the world, opened some of the biggest Vegas hotels in nightlife, and was the first person to book artists like Drake in Vegas in a prior life. However, what seemed like the most glamorous life filled with money, success, and beautiful women, was filled with moments that contributed to Josh’s depression and even suicidal thoughts.
After his attempt to end his life, he sought treatment and help to overcome his demons and depression, as well as becoming the face and founder of “When The Music Stops”, a suicide prevention community and non-profit organization aimed at supporting mental health, emotional health, and suicide prevention through music, connection and love.
It is a heavier show than normal and I challenge you to hear Josh’s story in entirety and the ways that he has chosen to help himself and others become their best selves. I know you can probably relate to many things within in this show and if you’re able to contribute to this incredible organization in any way, Josh & “When The Music Stops” would greatly appreciate your support!!
If you could please rate, review and share this episode with others, I would be so grateful And to talk about this or anything on the podcast, find me on instagram at @atxconcertqueen or shoot me an email at hello@atxconcertqueen.com.
Now without further ado, enjoy this show with Josh Donaldson!

On today's show, I talk about two pressing things that have been weighing on my heart. It's not a comfortable thing to talk about but as we continue to go out and attend events, concerts and festivals, it must be known that the behaviors of some individuals is completely uncalled for. Most recently, I've had 2 friends get drugged in the last month, and I myself have been drugged 3 x's since living in Austin. This is happening everywhere and it needs to stop.
I talk about these specific situations in detail, and how we need to normalize these conversations so others can look out for each other and know that they're not alone.

On today’s show, I have the incredible music duo, Capyac, a Berlin/Detroit/French electronic inspired group with jazz, funk and modern influences, and hands down, one of the BEST and ENTERTAINING live shows you’ll ever see. Yeah I said it and I stand behind it. Get a peek into the minds of Potion (Delwyn Campbell) & P.Sugz (Eric Peana) of their early years and beginnings of Capyac, how they are bridging the gap between their studio sound and live performances, and how they plan to infiltrate the music festival scene with a festival of their own (rhymes with shmickles) as well as their formal announcement to retire, commencing today and promptly end before the weekend.
This episode is a treat for a long-time Capyac fan and those just hearing about them for the first time, and if you could please rate, review and share this episode with others, I would be so grateful And to talk about this or anything on the podcast, find me on instagram at @atxconcertqueen or shoot me an email at hello@atxconcertqueen.com.

On today’s show, I have singer, songwriter, DJ, producer, podcast host and creative visionary, Walker Lukens. Walker is an artist that has come up during various shows on “Concert Queen Connect” and I was so excited to sit down with him and talk about all of his current projects. One of those being his “Song Confessional” booth that takes real life confessions from contributors and turns them into songs by well known artists. We talk about his inspiration to create the Sound Bath album and release it during quarantine, what his performance will be like with the legendary band, Spoon, and finally, his “Remember The Alamo” project that will blow your mind! We touched on so many topics and Walker is one of those dynamic artists that can do it all, and transforms any project he touches into something very unique and special.
Get to know the one and only, Walker Lukens as we talk about it all, and if you could please rate, review and share this episode with others, I would be so grateful And to talk about this or anything on the podcast, find me on instagram at @atxconcertqueen or shoot me an email at hello@atxconcertqueen.com.

On today’s show, I have Austin legend, Bob Schneider, “King of the Live Music Capital of the World”, and winner of more than 59 Austin Music Awards including, Best Album, Best Songwriter, Best Musician, and Best Male Vocals, making him the most decorated artist in Austin music history. Beyond that, Bob has performed all over the world and has released more than a dozen albums, written over 1000 songs, and is a published author.
Bob and I got so caught up in our conversation out the gates that we completely skipped our formal intro and just went right into talking about life and his mental health journey with therapy. We talked about some classic male/female stereotypes, his biggest struggle in life that happened during college, our conservative Catholic upbringings, what he thinks is lacking in music released today, and his reactions to legendary rock n’ roll frontmen that have shocked him throughout the years.

On today’s episode, I am joined by Ruby Jane Smith who has cultivated a following as a music prodigy with the violin, and is a classical violinist and fiddle player. She grew up quickly performing in front of large audiences at ACL and with artists like ZZ Top and Lady Gaga, but knew deep down, that she wanted to be center stage and play her most true sound. Pop music with an influence of her violin background, and developing her voice and songwriting skills.

On today’s episode, I am joined by OG Austinite, and my ACL & Concert Bestie, Nick Moreau, aka “Yonce”. Nick has become one of my closest friends and someone who is a modern-day historian of Austin’s staple events like SXSW, ACL and Blues on the Green. Our shared loved of music brought us together, but some of my most memorable stories in Austin have been with him. Nick is authentically and unapologetically himself and doesn’t hold back when it comes to being REAL, and supporting his friends and causes he cares about.
We talk about his love for Max Frost and the stages of “Lit Nick” at Love & Lightstream, his wild run-in with Tierra Whack’s posse at ACL and casually attempting to walk off the ACL stage at James Blake, and how his love of music has made him the ultimate hype man at any event we’re at together.

On today’s episode, I am joined by Austin based, trashwave duo, Me Nd Adam. What’s trashwave you ask? A genre they have not only created, but built their sound on, their mantra and rockstar lifestyle. Don’t let the mullet and shock value of Me Nd Adam fool you, these artists have produced an album with their title song, “Heartbreak Kid” hitting over a million streams on Spotify, Vince has a masters from NYU in music technology, and they’re committed to their fans and producing new music and touring soon.
This was one of the most wild shows I’ve done on this podcast and Me Nd Adam don’t hold anything back. They’re banter back and forth is non-stop, but their sincerity and appreciation to be where they are and where they’ve come from is something that will more than likely shock you. Me Nd Adam are the REAL DEAL and I’m so excited to see what this year holds in store for them, and now brace yours

On today’s episode, I’m joined by R&B/Soul singer, ACL performer, and one of my favorite people, Alesia Lani. Moving to Austin when she was just 4 years old, she saw the city evolve as did her own life change throughout the years, and embarked on the latest chapter of her life coinciding with her latest music.
Alesia and I talk about how she’s enjoyed the break in performing and tour life, her journey overseas to Thailand in the midst of the pandemic, and how she embraced the time alone to work on herself and spend time with her daughter. We talk about her time in the Austin Music Foundation’s development program, and how her final performance with AMF was with a torn ACL!! Nothing could keep her down and she performed at the 2019 Austin City Limits music festival shortly after! We talk energies, our mutual tomboy upbringings, her recent collection of vinyl and so much more!
