WRC award-winning Pete Feenstra has spent the last forty years listening to, writing about, talking about, and promoting Rock music, with a particular interest in the Blues, and Pete's latest Rock & Blues show is today's Podcast Of The Day, featuring Slim Butler, Emma Wilson, Tedeschi Trucks, Edgar Broughton Band, Greta Van Fleet (pictured), Jonathan Jeremiah, The Black Keys, Albert Castiglia, Sonny Rhodes, Supersonic Blues Machine, Kira Mac, Peter Goalby, Beaux Gris Gris & The Apocalypse, Gary Cain, Mick Simpson and many more.

Ahead of a string of Summer shows around Europe, including Alice Cooper later this month, and as special guests to Guns N’ Roses in London at the beginning of next month, last Friday, Michael Monroe released his new album, 'I Live Too Fast To Die Young', via Silver Lining Music, of which his latest anthemic new single, ‘Everybody’s Nobody’, accompanied by today's high-octane, feel-good Video Of The Day, shows the band swaggering the streets like Rock-Punk poets, storytellers who've seen it all. With the new album, it is clear that Michael is striding into the Summer with a triumphant - and perhaps most importantly, defiant - roar to offer you a chance to let your hair down (or up!) and to once again enjoy the freedom of joyous celebration and expression. His band will also be joining Black Star Riders on their 2023 UK tour along with Motörhead’s Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons, that kicks-off on Monday 13th February at Nottingham’s Rock City.

Following the outstanding success of this January's sold out HRH NWOCR, HRH NWOCR 2 will take place at another new destination, namely the beautiful 02 Academy Oxford, where they will stage another two day, two arena event next year, over the weekend of the 21st and 22nd January, and today's 'HRH NWOCR 2 Rocks!' Tracks Of The Day feature six of the many bands taking part, namely Trucker Diablo, Sons Of Liberty, Gin Annie, Collateral, Daxx & Roxane and When Rivers Meet.

Carolina Perez, the drummer from Castrator, joins today's The Zach Moonshine Show Podcast Of The Day to play and talk about their new record, plus there's tracks from BulletBoys, Lamb Of God, Skrog, Slayer, Savage Master, Leather Duchess, Tygers Of Pan Tang, The Red Mountain, Casket Robbery, Inhuman Condition, Cannibal Corpse, Body Count, St. Madness, Jason Aaron Wood, Gravehuffer, Crucifyre, Grave, Deicide, Hooded Menace, W.A.S.P. and Silence The Prophecy!

Rock, Blues-Rock and Indie-Rock outfit, Ask Carol’s recent third single, 'Mountains Of Cash', taken from their debut album, due to be released on Friday 26th August, not only comes with a lot of energy and Punk attitude, but is also today's Video Of The Day. With a dark irony and subtle humour, this alternative Rock tune, pokes fun at the elite few, those with unimaginable wealth, who sit on 'Mountains Of Cash'. All in contrast to the intimate vocals, trombones and delayed space guitars makes for a cinematic backdrop, while a mean fuzzy guitar and punchy drums hits you in the face.

HRH XV takes place this year at the Vauxhall 5-Star Holiday Resort in Great Yarmouth over the extended weekend of 3rd - 6th November, and today's HRH XV Rocks! Tracks Of The Day have been taken from six of the forty quality acts taking part across the three stages, namely Thundermother, The Darkness, Gin Annie, Twister, The Hot Damn! and Scarlet Rebels.

Originally broadcast last Friday night, today's Rock Vault 107 Podcast Of The Day includes music from Gary Moore (pictured), Sammy Hagar, Deep Purple, Night Ranger and loads more. Indeed, you can listen live to Jules and Bob every Friday night at 8pm on 107 Meridian FM. Taking you back in time, they'll bring you tracks that you may know and some you may not, plus they always feature a special year.

With his new album expected to be released later this year via Mighty Music, legendary Los Angeles native bass player Marco Mendoza has recently released his new single, the soaring and uplifting, ‘Shoot For The Stars’, of which the lyric video is today's Video Of The Day. Featuring the well renowned trio of Soren Anderson (guitar/producer), Tommy Gentry (lead guitar) and Morten Hellborn (drums), the highly acclaimed international touring player has a proud Spanish/Mexican heritage and has usually been found in the past holding down the bass Rock foundation with household name artists in Neal Schon and Journey, Whitesnake, Thin Lizzy, Ted Nugent and The Dead Daisies, as well as contemporary artists like Delores O’Riordan of The Cranberries. Currently on tour across Europe, Marco’s shows are eclectic and electric all in the same way, and he will return to the UK later this year with festival appearances at Soundbay: Loud in Swansea and a special appearance at Monsterfest in Inverness.

Originating from Chula Vista, California, Indie/Alt-Rock outfit Los Saints recentlyreleased their five-trackEP, 'Welcome To Confusion', via ENCI Records, along with today's Video Of The Day of their latest single, 'Lost You', that continues to build on the success of their previous singles 'IDK' and 'Fouund You Somewhere'. It's a coming-of-age record from the trio, consisting of frontman Angel Mariscal, guitarist Gianluca Exposito and drummer Emiliano Garcia, one that finds the young band striving to make sense of both where they're from and where they're going. Indeed, their sound is familiar yet foreign all at once, a reflection of listening habits that range from halcyon dream Pop to contemporary Hip Hop and everything in between.

Today's latest Blues On The Radio Podcast Of The Day starts and finishes with The Lucky 13s, ahead of their show at Coulsdon's Tuesday Night Music Club tonight, there's also a little preview of Gillingham's UKBlues Fuse Mini Festival this Saturday 18th June with Mudlow and Five Points Gang (pictured), and then finally Rich squeezes in tracks from The Record Company, A.C.
