In the Spotlight - Season 3 - Ep. 20 with Mercy Music - A Powered By Rock Podcast Short

Hey there, it’s Isaac from Powered By Rock here to bring Brendan, Jarred and Rye from Mercy Music into the spotlight for a few minutes, and make them sweat with some on-the-spot questions.

Welcome, guys. Are you ready to be put in the spotlight?

1 - Okay, I know during the Palapalooza Podcast you guys were asked to name some of your favorite Vegas bands, and that you kinda forgot some of the bands you wanted to mention. Here’s your shot to redeem yourself. Name as many awesome Vegas bands as you can in 30 seconds…

2 - In the spirit of the movie Old School, if you guys had to compete in a sort of 3-event competition in order to show that your band is the worthy of its own fraternity what would the 3 non-instrument playing events be, and who is in each event?

  • Weight lifting - Jarred
  • Fashion show - Brendan
  • Dance battle - Rye

3 - What one musician who is alive would each of you most like to meet?

4 - If you could make a wish and change something about the Las Vegas music scene to make it better, what would it be?

5 - Being married and having kids makes it tough to be in a full-time band. How hard is it going to be to leave your families behind when you guys have a world tour after the new album comes out?

I want to thank the guys from Mercy Music for stepping In the Spotlight and answering these hot seat questions.

Until we see you again for the next episode,

Rock on!
