One of classic rock’s greatest songwriting teams will be celebrated in June when Foreigner guitarist Mick Jones is inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame with his former longtime collaborative
It’s been 40 years since the formation of Bad Company. During our conversation with band's legendary singer Paul Rodgers, the veteran vocalist acknowledges that it’s been a “checkered career,” but it's also been one that has been filled with numerous highlights and success.
For Cinderella frontman Tom Keifer, the title of his new album, ‘The Way Life Goes,’ has a lot of significance. It’s been a strenuous road to recovery for Keifer since the early ‘90s, when doctors told him that he would probably never sing again as the result of a paralyzed left vocal cord. If there was a light at the end of the tunnel, it would take a lot of hard work to get there.

Beth Hart is one of those singers you've probably heard, even if you're not aware of it. She's had a long career that includes an adult contemporary hit titled 'LA Song (Out of This Town)', from her critically acclaimed album 1999 album 'Screamin' For My Supper,' as well as a slew of work she's done with such high-profile artists as Slash, Joe Bonamassa, and Jeff Beck.
Todd Rundgren spent the better part of 2012 addressing the varied nature of his recording career with tour dates that appropriately promised an “unpredictable” evening of music from the veteran singer/songwriter and producer. Rundgren fans have learned to expect th
For over thirty years now, drummer Charlie Benante has been captaining the mighty ship Anthrax through choppy metallic waters, alongside first mate Scott Ian and fellow crew members of differing rank, station and duration – all of them responsible, in some measure, for steering the band’s career into the so-called ‘Big Four’ of thrash and keeping it there.
