I know I have said it before the music industry is a small small world. I received a text the other day from Crowned By Fire guitarist Justin Manning about Monte Pittman getting in touch with me about some things. At the same time Monte messaged me about said things. We got in touch and managed to set up this interview. In the course of our conversations we also found out we have a lot of friends and contacts in common. Enjoy getting to know Monte Pittman right here:

My wife, Mrs. Hellion is a very giving person with a big heart. She would help the world out if it were in her power to do so. She was recently nominated by someone to be arrested during the Muscular Dystrophy Association Lock-Up fundraiser. Her crime: Having a big heart. Her goal is to raise $1600.00 bail for the MDA. If you can, take the time and visit the link and donate to a worthy cause:

They say necessity is the mother of invention. Well circumstances led me to pick up a camera in September of 2012. I have since spent a lot of time learning and will always be learning to understand the art of photography. I have put a selection of my shots up on Flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/117375233@N02/ I would dig it if you checked them out and gave some feedback. Any feedback is appreciated as we can only learn from it.  – the Hellion

Straight out of Sweden: GAIN ELEVEN!!!

2013-07-17 Gain Eleven Logo-page-001   Sometimes you just happen to come across some cool stuff. Today I received an email that went to my junk file. I am glad that I look through my “junk” emails before trashing them. I saw an email from Vidar Solli telling me about his band Gain Eleven. G11profbild   He hit me up and suggested I check out the track for “Devils Child” on YouTube. I did and found that it was a pretty cool track. We befriended each other on Facebook and began a conversation. I found out that Gain Eleven was a four-piece band hailing from the west woods of Sweden.   Comprised of: David Flognman (vocals & guitar), Vidar Solli (lead Guitar), Martin Andersson (bass), and Hannes Liljedahl (drums), Gain Eleven fits right in with bands like Black Stone Cherry, Royal Republic, and Foo Fighters. The band formed in September of 2012 and began gigging their way around Sweden. They self-financed a three song EP and set their sights on exposing their brand of hard melodic rock to the world. G11musicstage G11 chalmers          It is with great pleasure that the Hellion Rocks introduces you to Gain Eleven with the hopes that people get behind and supports these hard working guys from Sweden. Do yourself a favor and check out their track “Devils Child”  right here:
