Music fans all have a beginning. A moment in time when a melody, a tone, or a groove connects with us for the first time. It sets the course on our journey into rock 'n' roll. For me it was at the young age of 4 when I heard my grandfather play the piano for the first time. Chapter 1 of The Hook Rocks Music Journey explores that moment and why it had such an impact for my passion for music, Please enjoy the episode!

Our guest this hour is veteran singer-songwriter and Americana music pioneer, Steve Forbert. This Mississippi native is considered one of America’s most perceptive songwriters. With over 20 albums to his name, and a new one on the way next month titled Moving Through America, Forbert is still going strong, maintaining a songwriting legacy like none other. From his 1978 debut album to today, Amy Wright chats with Forbert about his storied career and his creative process, highlighting key moments in his musical journey and his life in general. Whispering Bob Harris of BBC Radio 2 said Forbert has "One of the most distinctive voices anywhere," and we agree wholeheartedly. All superlatives aside, we’re thrilled to have him on the show, and for you to be here too.

Dianthus is an unusual band. It’s a band made up of twin sisters! Jessica & Jacky Parry (on drums and guitar, respectively) started off playing classical piano. But once they heard Black Veil Brides, it was all over. They put the piano aside for guitar and drums and started writing some heavy music! They honed their chops on covers and released their originals on Soundcloud. When they started work on their debut album, they had the opportunity to work with Jinxx from Black Veil Brides! And just as the duo began working on the new album, the lockdowns hit. That forced them to take a different approach to their writing. I think it paid off in the quality of the songs, particularly their lyrics. And currently, they are working on arranging the songs from their new album, Realms, so they can sound just as good live as they do on the album. Look out for their live shows and give them a follow on social media. You can check out dianthuslive.com for all their links. Give us a follow @PerformanceAnx on social media. You can help us out with a coffee at ko-fi.com/performanceanxiety or buy some merch at performanceanx.threadless.com. Rate & review. It helps. And don’t forget to check out the other great shows on the Pantheon Podcast Network. But right now, give it up for Dianthus on Performance Anxiety.
