On Valentines Day, we spoke to up and coming Pop Punk band, Winterhaven! These guys were great conversationalists, and their music is just a no brainer. Winterhaven writes music that is nostalgic, and has a familiar sound but is bringing it to a 2021 level that everyone needs to hear. Check out their latest singles, down below!

Back in February, Fayth spoke to Lucas who is the guitar player, song writer, and founder of 6 piece punk band, To The Helpless! Based out of Madrid, To The Helpless writes and plays songs that have the pure intention of making you feel less alone, and more understood.

“If you feel a little bit helpless, you might find some light in what we say.”

Lucas really embodies what punk means to us, and we know you guys will love this conversation as much as we did!

To The Helpless will be putting a song off their new record “A Futile Guide To Modern Living”, every month until November when the album is released , so make sure you give them a follow!

FOLLW PUNKS ON A PODCAST @PUNKSONAPODCAST @FAYTHSTARR

Back in February, Fayth had a fantastic group Skype call with Shawn, Jay, Stephan and Carmine from Toronto Alt Rock band, Deadhawk FM! This carefree quad started back In 2016, and of course, gained their momentum with a very popular “Forever Young” cover right before the pandemic hit. Now in 2021, they’re coming back slowly but with a vengeance, by releasing incredible new original singles including their latest one “Awake”. They told us all about their sing writing style, how one musician in the band can inspire another, and how they’ve kept themselves busy with their music during quarantine. Give Deadhawk FM a follow as they are releasing new things this summer, ans make sure to watch their EXTREMELY well done videos on YouTube! You can find everything on their website, linked down below!!!

For Season 4 Episode 7, we thought of introducing a band who’s name fits their episode number. This is Echoseven! Started building in 2019, this East Coast Canadian group started to really find their way in the past year. Fayth spoke to Allon, Stephanie, and Dylan from Echo7 about how the band came together, genre bending, and how they are aiming for all their songs to have a unique identity. They love to draw outside the lines by bringing different elements and instruments into their songs, all while having such a solid foundation. We can’t wait to see where they go!

Season 4 episode 6 stars Dustin Jones of The Conspirators, a punk rock Supergroup consisting of Jones, (Inner City Surfers) Chuck Dailey (I Mother Earth) and Darrin Pfeiffer (ex Goldfinger). They put out their record “While the World Sleeps” just a month before the pandemic hit and never got the chance to promote it until recently. Fayth dives into the record deeply with Dustin, and how it was inspired by personal events chronologically. All three members have such strong history with the music scene and it is definitely exemplified in their songs. “These three, have conspired to create something that is comfortably familiar, yet strikingly unique.” If you’re a fan of music that comes from the soul, you will love these guys.
