So here it is—I’m excited to present to you the long-awaited interview with Ian Rayha from Cinema Stereo.

Cinema Stereo is an energetic, trendy rock band—originally formed in Orlando and now based in Nashville, Tennessee—consisting of a trio: Ian Rayha (bass, keyboard, vocals), Sebastian Borysek (guitar), and Jeffrey Lageveen (drums). With their new album, *12:34*, they are currently taking Europe and the UK by storm.

I conducted this interview in September; at that time, the new album had not yet been released, and the European tour was still weeks away—which is why much of what is discussed in the interview is framed as being in the future. The new album is out now, and there are only a few concerts left in Europe, followed by a UK tour. If you would like to listen to the album or purchase tickets for the remaining shows, please visit their website: https://cinemastereo.us/

It is the first interview to be available as a video podcast on Spotify and YouTube.

I enjoyed it immensely, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who made this interview possible.

Thanks to everyone listening to this—enjoy! And keep rock 'n' roll alive.

Ich freue mich euch endlich euch das Interview mit Claus Stecher von Since 11 zu präsentieren.

Die Band aus der Schweiz und Südtirol kombiniert Alternative Pop mit Indie Rock-Elementen. Mit ihren melodischen Songs kreieren sie den perfekten musikalischen Cocktail für die nächste Sommerparty.

Ein tolles Interview mit einer Band die man im Auge haben sollte.

Viel Spaß beim Hören.
