Berthold City
Berthold City is just one of many bands in Andrew Kline’s discography, but its modern take on the anthemic and impactful hardcore of the 1980s is not to be missed! Andrew spoke with me about Berthold City, his tenure in hardcore, and his experience paving his own path through the music industry.

Be Well
When silence was no longer an option for Be Well frontman, Brian McTernan, he turned to music to express the mounting ocean of feelings and thoughts that he had been treading water against for so long. In this interview, Brian took some time to talk about his own mental health journey, Be Well’s trajectory and their new EP, Hello Sun (Revelation Records), and the idea that maybe, one day, things might actually be okay.
