Owner and main talent buyer for Rebel Lounge, and 6th generation Arizonan, Stephen Chilton, aka Psyko Steve, stops by for a chat. We dive deep into his punk rock roots, from booking friends' bands at Modified Arts in Phoenix in 2000 to putting on his own festival downtown in 2022 called Zona Music Festival. He shares his experience working for Stateside Presents and Crescent Ballroom and promoting shows as Psyko Steve. We also rap about his idea to start his own music venue The Rebel Lounge, in the former Mason Jar, in 2015. We rap about the evolution of the Phoenix scene and how a handful of venues changed it completely and the current state of the music industry. We also touch on his important work during the pandemic to create the National Independent Venue Association and the #saveourstages movement which resulted in important legislation which saved thousands of independent stages across the country.
