So one of my favorite labels turned 25 this year. For someone who didn't go to many local shows, Hawaiian Express was my outlet into the local scene here in Hawaii. Jason Miller of Hawaiian Express is my guest on this episode. I compiled a list of 25 questions for him and we get right into. Also mixed in this episode are songs from some of Hawaiian Express' releases throughout the years, available on most streaming services. Also, physical copies are still available!

This is a No Time Records themed show! I first heard about the label surfing through Bandcamp and have been picking up stuff from them since the first BANDCAMP Friday. They got lots of tapes, lots of cool distro records, and always releasing something new. Pictured below are several of my first purchases from No Time (My Kids on Fire record is in a storage box in Las Vegas :-/ )

I have a guest on the show! Fernando of the local ska-punk band No Villains Left joins me on the show. He plays trombone and sings in the band. We talk about ska music, the local Hawaii music scene and Fernando's first instrument, which was NOT trombone. It was a fun talk. We also get into the formation of No Villains Left and some (hilarious) stories behind a couple songs. Peppered throughout the show are tracks from the new album, Bright Lights and a couple from another local ska-punk band, Exit 24 (HAWAIIAN EXPRESS). This was some of the members of No Villains Left first band.
Also, note that there are two versions of this episode. The episode featured below is an uncut version of our interview. It was such a good talk which included lots of history/trivia of Hawaii's local music scene and we also get into Fernando's favorite ska bands and albums. Be sure to check out the bands' new album, Bright Lights (check out my review HERE) on digital platforms, Apple Music and Spotify.

Continuing on with the Facedown Records theme, on this episode, I play tracks from the bands on Night 2 of Facedown Fest 2020. The bands on this night were more rock based, effect-heavy, shoe-gaze type of hard-rock. Good stuff, it was my first time seeing any of these bands live. And I gotta say, the merch game went up several levels on Night 2. A lot of goodies. Also, Dens new album, Taming Tongues, was released that weekend. And Everything In Slow Motion coming out with new music :D. Be sure to check out Facedown Records and the links to the bands below. Stay safe, stay healthy and wash your hands everyone! Practice social distancing, but also be kind to each other. Let's look out for one another!
