This week's guest is a living legend. Steven Van Zandt is a renowned musician, actor & broadcaster most celebrated as Bruce Springsteen's guitarist and right hand man in the E Street Band, as well as for his role as Silvio Dante in The Sopranos. He's also a successful songwriter, arranger, producer and solo artist in his own right, and host of Little Steven's Underground Garage - a weekly syndicated radio show that champions garage rock from the 1950s to the present day. Unsurprisingly, he's an encyclopaedia of musical knowledge, and he takes Matt deep down the rock 'n' roll rabbit hole in this podcast.Follow Matt Stocks on Facebook / Twitter / Instagram: @mattstocksdjCheck out the Life In The Stocks Patreon page, support this podcast, and get all kinds of extras in return, from bonus podcasts & DJ mixes to archive print interviews & radio shows.www.patreon.com/lifeinthestocksMatt's first book, 'Life In The Stocks: Veracious Conversations with Musicians & Creatives (Vol. 01)' is also out NOW and is available via Amazon, Waterstones & Rare Bird Publishing.https://rarebirdlit.com/life-in-the-stocks-veracious-conversations-with-musicians-creatives/ Hosted on Acast.

Charismatic rock stars like Eugene Hutz are a dying breed, which is why Matt was thrilled to welcome the Gogol Bordello frontman and godfather of gypsy punk on to Life In The Stocks for a philosophical discussion about everything from consumerism and reincarnation to human potential and the meaning of life. They don't make them like Eugene anymore.Follow Matt Stocks on Facebook / Twitter / Instagram: @mattstocksdjCheck out the Life In The Stocks Patreon page, support this podcast, and get all kinds of extras in return, from bonus podcasts & DJ mixes to archive print interviews & radio shows.www.patreon.com/lifeinthestocksMatt's first book, 'Life In The Stocks: Veracious Conversations with Musicians & Creatives (Vol. 01)' is also out NOW and is available via Amazon, Waterstones & Rare Bird Publishing.https://rarebirdlit.com/life-in-the-stocks-veracious-conversations-with-musicians-creatives/ Hosted on Acast.

Nowadays, Rise Against are a hugely successful arena rock band, but they still retain a connection to their humble hardcore rock roots as this conversation with the band's singer Tim McIlrath undoubtably proves. They've grown and evolved over the years, but essentially they're the same group they always were: just a bunch of down to earth dudes driven by melodic punk rock music with a message. From growing up in the Chicago punk scene and playing in hardcore bands with Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz to signing with Fat Wreck Chords and recording with Bill Stevenson, it all gets covered in Episode 041 of Life In The Stocks - including the recent suicides of Chester Bennington and Chris Cornell, both of whom Tim called friends. All in all, an inspiring talk with a very inspiring artist.Follow Matt Stocks on Facebook / Twitter / Instagram: @mattstocksdjCheck out the Life In The Stocks Patreon page, support this podcast, and get all kinds of extras in return, from bonus podcasts & DJ mixes to archive print interviews & radio shows.www.patreon.com/lifeinthestocksMatt's first book, 'Life In The Stocks: Veracious Conversations with Musicians & Creatives (Vol. 01)' is also out NOW and is available via Amazon, Waterstones & Rare Bird Publishing.https://rarebirdlit.com/life-in-the-stocks-veracious-conversations-with-musicians-creatives/ Hosted on Acast.
