Henry Rollins’ Latest Broadcast: RIP Jason Mackenroth, plus new Ty Segall

Written by

Fanatic. On the third of January, Jason Mackenroth, drummer in Mother Superior, Rollins Band and Blue Man Group, passed away after a long battle with cancer. He was a good man and left too early. I was lucky enough to speak with him a few days before he died. It was good to have the chance to hear his voice one last time. I will really miss him.

Ty Segall

We have assembled a great batch of songs here. We would like to thank Ty Segall for sending us an advance of his excellent new album Emotional Mugger, dropping on 1-22-16 on Drag City. I have listened to it a few times now and I can safely say, the man has done it again. He has tour dates all over the place. I will be reading them off on upcoming shows.

Also, prepare yourself for a lot of great new records on the In The Red label to rock upcoming shows. Charles Moothart, the blazing guitar player in Fuzz, has a solo album, Still Life of Citrus & Slime, coming out later this year on ITR. We have it and have been given the green light to start playing it. We kick in with all that on 1-31-16.

It’s going to be a good year for records and shows. We are allied with a lot of excellent labels and they will be keeping us in the loop on what’s happening and we will be bringing whatever we can to you as soon as possible.
