Send us Fan Mail At Seismic Dance Event, I was able to sit down with Sam Wolfe, an artist and producer from Atlanta, for a candid discussion about his steady rise up the techno charts and how his music has been influenced by hard work, good karma, and being at the right place, right time.  Sam’s personality lends to big beats with big releases that are infectious when he’s playing and can be easily seen and felt on the dance floor.

Send us Fan Mail On today’s show, I have music duo, Hello Yes, consisting of guitarist Mitch Bell and saxophonist Aaron Leibowitz, birthed during off time on the road with electronic artist Zhu, who they continue to perform and collaborate with. With a new EP out titled, “Lost Signal”, they are constantly evolving and fine tuning their sound, taking influences from tour life and playing all over the world on festival and concert stages alike.  We talked about my awkward first meeting back on Zhu’s tour bus with Mitch and Ronny in 2018, uncommon fan gifts received on tour, the evolution of their “Hello Yes” sound and when they know a song is finished. They also discuss their first performance at “Lightning in a Bottle” this year with Ronny recapping his first festival experience there 10 years ago, and headlining the main stage with Zhu the previous year.

Send us Fan Mail On today’s show, I have the man, the myth, the legend, Josh Donaldson, founder of “When The Music Stops” and former tour manager of the World’s Biggest DJ, and at one point, “Las Vegas’s hand to shake” in the scene. Josh has toured the world, opened some of the biggest Vegas hotels in nightlife, and was the first person to book artists like Drake in Vegas in a prior life. However, what seemed like the most glamorous life filled with money, success, and beautiful women, was filled with moments that contributed to Josh’s depression and even suicidal thoughts. After his attempt to end his life, he sought treatment and help to overcome his demons and depression, as well as becoming the face and founder of “When The Music Stops”, a suicide prevention community and non-profit organization aimed at supporting mental health, emotional health, and suicide prevention through music, connection and love. It is a heavier show than normal and I challenge you to hear Josh’s story in entirety and the ways that he has chosen to help himself and others become their best selves. I know you can probably relate to many things within in this show and if you’re able to contribute to this incredible organization in any way, Josh & “When The Music Stops” would greatly appreciate your support!! If you could please rate, review and share this episode with others, I would be so grateful And to talk about this or anything on the podcast, find me on instagram at @atxconcertqueen or shoot me an email at [email protected].

Send us Fan Mail On today's show, I talk about two pressing things that have been weighing on my heart. It's not a comfortable thing to talk about but as we continue to go out and attend events, concerts and festivals, it must be known that the behaviors of some individuals is completely uncalled for. Most recently, I've had 2 friends get drugged in the last month, and I myself have been drugged 3 x's since living in Austin. This is happening everywhere and it needs to stop.  I talk about these specific situations in detail, and how we need to normalize these conversations so others can look out for each other and know that they're not alone.  Make sure to tune in every Wednesday to watch new episodes of “Concert Queen Connect” and make sure to ‘like’ and ‘subscribe’ to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbNiyZMWKbK2pH4J2rdj69Q?sub_confirmation=1 Host: Clarissa Cardenas IG: https://www.instagram.com/atxconcertqueen/  Website: http://www.theconcertqueen.com  Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theconcertqueen Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/Concert-Queen Listen to our podcast: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/concert-queen-connect/id1538535270 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6y3m5SLW5CnBvBpvh7cXgT?si=dN1Vlr9eQf2diQFrPIffug Producer: Steve Souza (http://www.souzamedia.com) IG : https://www.instagram.co

Send us Fan Mail On today’s show, I’m joined by Austin-based artist & pop-star performer, P1nkstar.  Originally from Mexico, P1nkstar is truly a trailblazer in Austin, and paved her  way at the University of Texas in the LatinX community, and pursued her passion in pop music very early on. She found her community and passion for connecting others to amazing trans and queer creatives through music, and we talked about rave culture, fashion, and her love of Twitter.

Send us Fan Mail On today’s show, I have singer, songwriter, DJ, producer, podcast host and creative visionary, Walker Lukens. Walker is an artist that has come up during various shows on “Concert Queen Connect” and I was so excited to sit down with him and talk about all of his current projects. One of those being his “Song Confessional” booth that takes real life confessions from contributors and turns them into songs by well known artists. We talk about his inspiration to create the Sound Bath album and release it during quarantine, what his performance will be like with the legendary band, Spoon, and finally, his “Remember The Alamo” project that will blow your mind! We touched on so many topics and Walker is one of those dynamic artists that can do it all, and transforms any project he touches into something very unique and special. Get to know the one and only, Walker Lukens as we talk about it all, and if you could please rate, review and share this episode with others, I would be so grateful And to talk about this or anything on the podcast, find me on instagram at @atxconcertqueen or shoot me an email at [email protected].
