Speed, the lead vocalist of hard rock band Silvertung, that has released three albums and hit the Billboard Mainstream Rock Radio Chart three times with the following three singles – “Never Too Late,” “Face The Music” and “You & Me” joins the eMusician Podcast Show.
Listen to host Eric Dye & guest Speed discuss the following:
- Let’s go back to the beginning. How did you get your start?
- How would you describe your sound to those who don’t know you and has this evolved over time?
- You’ve had a lot of success in a short amount of time — including several songs on the Billboard charts — what do you attribute this to?
- You’ve done most of the “work” on your own, correct? Meaning, without a major record label backing you. Can you explain to our listeners how you do this and what goes into being an independently successful band?
- What advice do you have for other independent bands and artists out there trying to do what you do?
- You just released an all acoustic EP entitled “Lighten Up” and now a DVD to accompany it — what was that like?
- What’s next for Silvertung?
