The Atlanta Dolls

You know how technology can be fickle at the most inopportune times? I do way too well. Despite the lost files, our interview with EarthGang is coming soon, but enjoy some of this teaser for now…

Greta and I attended one of the most historic shows of all time, The Fall Of Troy farewell tour and it was bittersweet. In light of the somber mood of one my favorite bands departing, I got the special opportunity to interview one of my new favorite bands, Envy on the Coast. I must say, they’re some of the most down to earth, coolest guys you’ll ever meet. Their sound is like no other band out there, with groovy rhythms and melodies, and Ryan’s dynamic voice, which makes for an amazing live show and album. I got a chance to talk singer, Ryan Hunter and bassist, Jeremy Velardi, about the band history, and their new album, Low Country, which I suggest you run and go get it.

I know the lighting was really terrible, but we were victims of circumstance and sometimes you just have to deal. I think of it as mood lighting anyway. It gives it a certain ambience, don’t you think?

All The Dolls got the chance to catch J-Lie at the Curren$y show back in February and were all blow away. He’s got a real air of sincerity that makes him stand out from a lot of rappers these days. There’s no denying his realness. Make sure you check out this dope in studio video shot by Ben Styles.
