Author: Powered By Rock March 20, 2023 Duration: 1:11:06

Hello and welcome to the Powered By Rock Podcast!

I am excited because today, we have TWO incredible guests on our show as part of our Indie Spotlight series that I wanted to make a recurring part of The Powered By Rock Podcast.

First up, we will be speaking to Zhong from the Chinese-based rock band The Sino Hearts about the music, his incredible backstory and some other interesting questions.

You will also get to hear a song from them before the end of our segment.

After that, I will be speaking with Josh Courtright from Room 6 YouTube Channel to talk about how he helps shine a spotlight on indie music here in Las Vegas. So, make sure to stick around until the end, because both guests are fantastic, and I think you’ll really want to hear more about them.
