DYLAN KAIN LEAD SINGER FOR DALLAS TEXAS HARD ROCKERS NOVAKAIN ANNOUNCES NEW SINGLE "I DON'T CARE" EXCLUSIVE ZOOM SPECIAL EVENT ON INTERVIEWING THE LEGENDS!

 


 D Y L A N   K A I N 

LEAD SINGER 

OF DALLAS TEXAS HARD ROCKERS

N O V A K A I N

NEW SINGLE

"I DON'T CARE"

EXCLUSIVE ZOOM INTERVIEW

with RAY SHASHO



NOVAKAIN is a groove heavy / rock trio from Dallas TEXAS, that draws influences from old school 70’s rock music while adding their own modern twists to their songs.


They keep their music raw with the crunchy guitar tones of KYLE KAIN, mixed with the artistic lyrics and edgy bass playing of his brother bassist / vocalist DYLAN KAIN. Nailed down with the solid yet funky drum chops of JOHN BEREUTER, NOVAKAIN has an infectious style of their own. The band has created a killer album titled “The Oh No!

Unknown”
 that recently caught the ear of Tesla’s guitarist / producer Frank Hannon. Frank states “I met these guys at a gig in Dallas TX hanging out in the parking lot. I didn’t even hear them that night. A few days later I listened to the album and was blown away! NovaKain are the coolest “unknown” band I’ve heard in years, and I’ve decided to help spread the word about them and this album.” 

Now the band is teaming up with the album’s producer Jeff Mount at Session works studio and Frank Hannon to produce a radio single and music video for the song “I Don’t Care” to be released at rock radio stations and media outlets nationwide. 

“This is a passion project for me because I like the guys and really dig their music. They’ve been paying dues around Dallas for the last 10 years and I’d like to see them step up and get heard.”

THE ROCK STAR CHRONICLES

BOOK TRAILER

 

BOOK REVIEW

-By Literary Titan (5) STARS

The Rock Star Chronicles by Ray Shasho, is a splendid book written by a music enthusiast who has poured their heart and soul into it. It’s a story of a boy who loved rock music, and his obsessive passion of it earned himself the name Rock Raymond. He went to school but instead was schooled in all matters of music while his peers were buried chin-deep in coursework. He then became a radio DJ and has now compiled a book on all interviews he held with Rock gods who raided the airwaves back in the 70s and 80s. It’s a compilation of interviews with outstanding vocalists, legendary guitarists and crazy drummers in the rock music scene. Each interview gives a reader an in-depth view into their personal lives and the philosophies that guide their lives which all serve to humanize these great icons. For readers who are old enough to call themselves baby boomers this book will bring old memories back to life. Millennials, on the other hand, may think of this book as a literal work of the Carpool Karaoke show. 

The Rock Star Chronicles is a book I didn’t know I was waiting for. To come across a book that will talk me into trying something new. One brave enough to incite me to venture into new frontiers. This book made me a believer- I am now a bona fide Rock and Roll music fan. 

Ray Shasho masterfully gets the interviewees talking. He smartly coaxes answers from them with crafty questions designed to get a story rolling out of them. The artists talk about diverse issues ranging from music, politics, and their social engagements. Having been on the music seen all his life, Ray Shasho knows the buttons to press, how to get them comfortable about talking about their lives. 

The book’s cover is befitting of its subject matter with the leather look offering a royal background to the golden letter print. It speaks to how high a level rock music holds in the pecking order- arguably, modern music as we know it has originated from blues and rock music.  The second noteworthy thing is the use of high-definition pictures to reference the musician being interviewed in every sub-chapter. This ensures that the book is for both original rock and roll lovers and aspiring new ones. Together is makes for a refreshing and consistently enjoyable read.

I recommend this book to rock music enthusiasts, aspiring musicians wondering what it takes and all readers curious to learn new things by going back in time.

FRANK FERRARA AND FRANKIE GILCKEN OF LEGENDARY HARD ROCK TRIO ‘BANG’ EXCLUSIVE ZOOM SPECIAL EVENT ON INTERVIEWING THE LEGENDS WITH RAY SHASHO!

 


 

LEGENDARY HARD ROCK TRIO

BANG

 RELEASING NEW ALBUM 

AFTER ALMOST TWENTY YEARS!

entitled

'ANOTHER ME'

ZOOM SPECIAL EVENT

WITH

ORIGINAL MEMBERS

FRANK FERRARA

AND

FRANKIE GILCKEN

In the summer of 1971, BANG, a trio from the Philadelphia area, decided to take a road trip to Florida to try their fortune. While buying some rolling papers in the Sunshine State, they learned about a Faces and Deep Purple concert nearby in Orlando. They showed up at the venue and brazenly declared they were ready to go on stage. The concert organizer asked them to set up and play for him.

After a couple songs, he told them they were opening for Rod Stewart and Faces. Before they knew it, BANG was playing with Bachman Turner Overdrive, Deep Purple, Three Dog Night, Fleetwood Mac, Ike and Tina Turner, The Doobie Brothers, and even Black Sabbath. Capitol Records signed them, and three LPs were released. 

The 1971 self-titled debut album “BANG” is considered an important forerunner to the early Doom Metal genre. Undoubtedly one of America’s heaviest 'proto metal' bands from the period, BANG also had a strong sense of melodic power. The band’s versatility and songwriting skills are second to none. Highly regarded as a cult act by many for years, it’s now time for this truly amazing rock band to be enjoyed by a new audience worldwide!
 It’s been nearly 20 years since the band’s previous studio album, two decades in which they’ve overcome incredible challenges, all to bring this epic slab of heavy, melodic psychedelic metal to their still loyal fanbase!BANG, is back with a new album “Another Me”! Featuring all 3 members of the classic line-up:

Entitled

ANOTHER

 ME

 

Often called America's answer to Black Sabbath, one of the most unsung bands in the history of US hard rock music, BANG, is back with a new album “Another Me”! Featuring all 3 members of the classic line-up: bassist/vocalist Frank Ferrara, guitarist Frankie Gilcken and original drummer/lyricist Tony Diorio along with new drummer Danny Piselli. 


“We’re stoked about our new album ‘Another Me’ … It was a labor of love that’s been a long time coming … We went back to our roots to give our fans … in your face rock … all killer … no filler” - BANG

Check out the first single from the album, the killer title track “Another Me” - Stream/download the single:

With the heaviness of Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin, coupled with the groove of Grand Funk Railroad, BANG released three critically acclaimed albums on Capitol Records in the early 1970s before disappearing for a number of years. 2023 marks the 52nd anniversary of BANG’s critically acclaimed debut album which was just reissued last week on a unique, limited edition colored vinyl.
