JAMXP

On this week's episode, we were joined by Matty, Kean, and Mauricio of the Los Angeles-based pop-punk/easycore band Protect Your Heart!

We had an absolute blast chatting with the three of them about the band's journey so far, how their sound has evolved over the years, and what they've learned about themselves along the way. We also took a deep dive into the meaning behind some of their songs, asked about their dream tour lineups, and covered so much more!

We were having such a great time that this conversation ended up running a little longer than usual—but we think it's well worth the listen! We hope you enjoy this conversation with Protect Your Heart as much as we enjoyed having it.

On this week's episode, we're joined by Chris Kelly of hard rock/metalcore band Hillhaven! Chris is a former fill in guitarist of Ice Nine Kills and is doing some incredible things with this new venture.

We had an absolute blast chatting with Chris! We talked about the band's somewhat rapid success, what it was like hearing Hillhaven on SiriusXM Octane, the stories and inspiration behind some of their songs, what the future has in store for the band, and, of course, went off on a few fun tangents along the way.

This was one of those conversations that didn't end when we hit stop... we kept talking long after the recording was over! Keeping that in mind we hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we enjoyed having it.

On this week's episode, Jess was flying solo as Jonathan Norris of Texas-based hard rock band Kingdom Collapse joined her on the podcast! She actually met Jonathan back in May when Kingdom Collapse rolled through Northern Wisconsin on tour with Red, so it was awesome getting the chance to catch up with him.

They talked about his longtime friendship with their bassist Aaron, who he's known since he was a kid, how music became his light through life's toughest moments, the band's latest singles, what fans can expect from their upcoming record and the overall vibe it's bringing, life on the road, tour stories, and so much more.

Jess had an absolute blast catching up with Jonathan and learning even more about Kingdom Collapse. All that being said, we hope you enjoy this conversation just as much as she did!

Before we get started, we want to apologize for the audio quality in this episode. Our guest experienced ongoing internet connection issues during the recording, causing freezing, intermittent audio glitches.

Unfortunately, the connection was too unstable for us to fully fix these issues in editing without losing large portions of the conversation.

We appreciate your patience and understanding, and we hope you'll stick with us because this was a great conversation worth sharing, glitches and all.

All that being said... On this week's episode, we were joined by Guitarist Clark Domae of the band Rufio who you may or may not remember from the early 2000s! We had a blast chatting with him about their re-record of their song Dipshit, they're new EP that's coming out August 7th, some of the inspiration behind a few of the songs on the EP, and whether or not Rufio is making a comeback!

There was never a dull moment throughout the conversation, and of course, in true JAMXP fashion, we got slightly sidetracked here and there. Don't worry, though... the tangents were just as entertaining as the interview itself!

Maybe you're already a fan of Rufio and follow them on Instagram or TikTok, or maybe this is your first introduction to them. Either way, be sure to check Rufio out on all your favorite social media platforms and streaming services. All that being said we hope you enjoy the conversation we had with Clark of Rufio as much as we did.
