Spreading love through rock ‘n’ roll is its own instrument and one that can connect with people in a way that any electric guitar or snare drum cannot. It’s even more powerful when it’s filtered through The Damn Truth, the 60s-inspired quartet whose latest album, Now Or Nowhere, makes us want to go everywhere with the band – now or in the future. Their latest single, “This Is Who We Are Now,” was always meant to lead the charge with this record, which officially drops May 7 via Spectra Musique/SONY Music. We sat down with vocalist/guitarist Lee-la Baum and bass/vocalist PY Letellier to get the full scoop in a brand new seven question session.

Artist: Andrew W.K.

Album: “You’re Not Alone”

Label: Bee & El/Sony Music

Reason We’re Cranking It: In a world that is filled to the brim with negativity, bullying and gloom, it is rare to be reminded of the positive side of life. It is even more rare to be reminded of it with the power of rock and partying, but Andrew W.K. has done just that with his latest album, “You’re Not Alone.” Each track leads into one another like a rock opera that is consumed by our ears and filtered out through our brains, and by the time the last song plays through, we’re left feeling stronger and more uplifted than when we began.

What The Album Tells Us About Them: This album has a very emotional vibe to it. It feels like a journey – perhaps a journey that Andrew W.K. has made in his own life and is sharing with the world through amazing guitar riffs, masterful piano playing and entrancing vocals. The album has a truth and honesty to it that is undeniable and rare.

Track Stuck On Repeat: While we have the whole album on repeat, we can’t get “Party Mindset” out of our minds. It has a melodic piano hook mixed with a message of discovery that will have you singing along and drumming on your desk with positivity and partying, the rest of the day long!
