#EscapeTheHive is an exciting #band exploding out of the independent scene and getting ready to take over with their new album coming out in #2026, now signed with #DekoEntertainment/ #WarnerBrothersMusic.

I had the opportunity to sit with band members, Michael Beck (Lead Vocals) and Paul Williams (Bass & Backing Vocals), to discuss the new record, their #writing, their live shows and their #influences

This is a fun interview with two great guys. It’s gotten me excited for the new album.

New Podcast: The Scars Saudade Wrote

I was really happy to sit down with Steve for this podcast conversation and talk about my latest book, The Scars Saudade Wrote. We got into the inspirations behind the writing, the themes woven throughout the book, and even some unexpected fun conversations about professional wrestling and how those influences somehow find their way into my work — whether readers notice it or not.

It was a great chat with lots of honesty, storytelling, and laughs along the way. Hope you enjoy listening, and be sure to follow the podcast for more great conversations and episodes.
