We play the songs “Change” and “Bittersweet Seduction” and Seventrain give us some background on the tunes.
The band talks about getting their start jamming at a memoriam show for Big Vinny, a local soundman who passed away, and finding a chemistry which prompted them write songs and put together an album. They talk about their song writing process and the differing approaches between their first and second albums. Jeff and John talk about the artists who inspire them– everyone from Eddie Van Halen to Freddie Mercury.
Dino talks about the artists that inspired him – Paul McCartney, John Entwistle, Iron Maiden, Anthrax, as well as funk players. Joel talks about his drummer influences, including Tommy Aldridge, Buddy Rich and Neil Peart as well as various guitarists, bassits and keyboard players. Seventrain talk about some of their favorite gear and the manufacturers who sponsor them. We discuss the urgent need for San Diego to support the local music scene.

With so many fresh and cutting edge musical groups in San Diego and passing through on tour, Radio Bandiego provides a vibrant, bustling hub where bands and solo musicians perform their music live on air and talk about their passions, inspirations, and aspirations.

Music Artists are essentially storytellers and we invite them to share their stories, those that can be expressed in words and those that can only be told through the emotion of melodies, rattling of strings, the sizzle of amplifiers, the crashing of drums, and through depths of lyrical poetry. The show strives to go beyond mere entertainment, providing a setting that lets bands and audiences find each other, and gives fans the opportunity to hear and get to know artists on a level much deeper than a cursory play-through.
