Welcome to RadioBypass Episode 436, bringing you the best in Rock and Roll music past, present and future — and Rock and Roll music that DESERVES to be heard!

This week, we have brand-new music from Storm Force, Unite The States Project, Saxon, CoreLeoni, Courtney Gains, Erinn Alissa, and Led By Vultures.

We also take time to remember.

September 12th marks the birthday of legendary Rush drummer and lyricist Neil Peart. We celebrate his life and extraordinary musical legacy with two live Rush performances, including “The Spirit Of Radio” from Exit... Stage Left and their cover of “Summertime Blues” from R30.

This week also marks the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. We remember the lives lost and a day that forever changed the world through four songs inspired by or connected to 9/11: Jim Peterik and Johnny Van Zant's “The Day America Cried,” Bon Jovi's “Undivided,” Tesla's “Heaven Nine Eleven,” and Testament's “The Evil Has Landed.”

Then we turn our attention back to the music of today with another dose of NEW Rock and Roll music that DESERVES to be heard, featuring Storm Force, Unite The States Project, Saxon, CoreLeoni, Courtney Gaines, Erinn Alissa, and Led By Vultures.

Finally, we close out Episode 436 with The Joe Perry Project and a birthday shoutout to Aerosmith guitar legend Joe Perry, who celebrated his birthday on September 10th.

RadioBypass — celebrating Rock and Roll past, present, and future and bringing you Rock and Roll music that DESERVES to be heard.

Todd Kerns joins RadioBypass for an in-depth conversation covering Triumph, Toque, Slash featuring Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators, Minefield, Heroes & Monsters, Black Sonic Pearls, and an incredible Rock and Roll life!

This conversation has been a couple of years in the making. Mutual friend Mitch Perry first introduced Todd and RadioBypass host Ralph Rasmussen, and Todd and Ralph talked then about getting together for a RadioBypass interview. It took a little longer than planned—but considering everything happening in Todd's musical world right now, the timing couldn't have been much better.

One of the biggest topics is Triumph.

Todd takes us inside his experience joining Rik Emmett and Gil Moore for the Rock & Roll Machine Reloaded Tour, something he describes as among the most surreal experiences of his career. Growing up in Canada with Triumph's music in his DNA makes being part of the band's return especially meaningful.

Todd talks about stepping into the role originally held by Mike Levine while still bringing his own personality to the stage, working alongside Phil X and Brent Fitz, recreating those classic Triumph songs live, and the unforgettable moment when Rik Emmett asked him to sing “Fight the Good Fight.”

With a second leg of the Rock & Roll Machine Reloaded Tour announced, Todd also discusses what might change when the band heads back out and some of the Triumph music he'd love to tackle. 

We also dive into Toque, Todd's celebration of Canadian Rock and Roll with longtime musical partner Brent Fitz. Todd tells us how the band began, what Canadian rock means to him, and the story behind “Fighters,” which RadioBypass named one of our Top 11 Singles of 2025.

Todd shares the meaning behind “Fighters,” the unexpected hockey story that inspired one of its lyrics, and what's happening now with Toque—including their brand-new single “This Isn't Over.”

The conversation also takes us through Minefield, Heroes & Monsters, Blackbird Angels, Todd's collaborations with Black Sonic Pearls, the changing music business, why being a frontman has helped him become a better sideman, and why saying “yes” has played such an important role throughout his career.

And before we wrap up, Todd gives us some exciting news about Slash featuring Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators:

The next SMKC album is coming in 2027

Todd says a new single should arrive before the end of 2026

And the band plans to embark on a world tour in 2027

Then we do what RadioBypass does best—turn up the music!

Toque – Fighters

One of the RadioBypass Top 11 Singles of 2025

Toque – This Isn't Over

The brand-new Toque single, personally selected by Todd Kerns for RadioBypass.

There was still plenty left to talk about when we reached the end—and Todd himself suggested a “Part Two.”

We think that's a pretty good idea!

Turn it up and enjoy our conversation with Todd Kerns!

Welcome to Episode 434 of RadioBypass!

This week we're bringing you another hour of Rock and Roll music that DESERVES to be heard, with brand-new music from Lee Richards and Friends, Wildfire, Flotsam and Jetsam, Phil Soussan, Night Ranger, Cactus, Angel Down, Wicked, and Christian Love!

We kick things off with Triumph's "Ordinary Man" before turning things over to Todd Kerns on lead vocals and bass with Heroes And Monsters and "Locked and Loaded." There's a reason we're starting there — tomorrow on RadioBypass, we'll be releasing our brand-new interview with Todd Kerns! Todd joins us for a great conversation about his career, the music he's making today, and his connection to Triumph and the Rock & Roll Machine tour.

We also take some time to remember the legendary Dolly Parton. Although the world knew Dolly primarily as a country music icon, her music, personality, songwriting, and influence transcended genres. When she was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Dolly famously questioned whether she belonged there — and then decided to make a Rock and Roll album!

We'll hear Dolly talk about that journey before cranking up "Bygones" from her 2023 album Rockstar, an original Dolly composition featuring Nikki Sixx and John 5 of Mötley Crüe along with Rob Halford of Judas Priest.

From there, we get right back to the mission of RadioBypass with new Rock and Roll music from Lee Richards and Friends, Wildfire, Flotsam and Jetsam, Phil Soussan, Night Ranger, Cactus, Angel Down, Wicked, and Christian Love, plus King Kobra!

Meet Black Sonic Pearls!

On this episode of RadioBypass, we welcome Alex Blacksonic, guitarist and founding member of Black Sonic Pearls, for a conversation about the band's story, their journey around the world, and the exciting new chapter they're creating.

Alex takes us back to the formation of Black Sonic Pearls and talks about the band's rapid rise onto stages around the globe, including touring with Slash featuring Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators.

That experience also led to a friendship and musical collaboration with Todd Kerns, who appears on two recent Black Sonic Pearls releases:

Earth Song feat. Todd Kerns — a dark, heavy reimagining of the Michael Jackson classic, approached through the musical spirit of Alice In Chains.

Exile In Hollywood feat. Todd Kerns — an original Black Sonic Pearls track offering another glimpse into where the band is heading next.

We talk with Alex about the inspiration behind both songs, how the relationship with Todd developed from touring together into creating music together, and what's ahead for Black Sonic Pearls.

And we're not just talking about the music — we're PLAYING IT!

After our conversation with Alex, crank it up and hear Earth Song and Exile In Hollywood in full!
