Description

Halshack is an everything music entertainment juggernaut including podcasts hosted by me with music and music only bonus show podcasts, review blogs, video channel like MTV and our own radio station on ZENO FM!!! Festival promotion company coming as well. We are broadcasted, played, streamed, downloaded, or aired in over 500 global markets and over 100 countries around the world!! I work with indie bands who have earned top star music collab projects with (Stevie Nicks, Frankie Muniz, Lil Zane, Belinda Carlisle, Eminem, including many more credits) We also help represent #1 Billboard rock band CAVO!!I am honored to have been bestowed with such gifted musicians and music and to be revered with such respect among my peers. Thanks so much for your love and support as we continue to rise to the top of the music industry. I am currently fielding investors and/or partners to make HALSHACK RECORDS a reality. I have partners who are former major label reps as we all come from a major label background in some capacity. I earned a partnership with REVERBNATION about 3 years ago through the former owner of the company Lou Plaia. He and his partners after 15 years of investment into the indie music community sold the company to Bandlab! A Singaporean company. I have continued that relationship as most reps still work for the company. They have fed me hundreds of new bands through their "Opportunities network" as well as my contacts with Belinda Carlisle and Eminem and Lil Zane and Nic Collins (son of Phil Collins) in his own band as a drummer as he is also the current touring drummer for Genesis! Im very very honored to have these credits!We recently put heavy focus on the radio station for ZENO FM! So far it has received massively strong positive reviews and people have logged thousands of hours of listening for the station in a short time! AWESOME!! Find the show on every major music platform in the world and on ZENO FM (exclusive content) and on HALSHACK.com

Back after popular demand!  Up next for your audible loving ears! Its been 3 years since the original Double Trouble hit the Halshack airwaves back during the crazy toilet paper lovin' year of 2020..lolLets serve up another stellar show for your musical tray! Its a wild varied romp through different genres that will have your head spinning at how I managed to make it all work with my signature flow..lolThis series was born exclusively on ZENO FM back in 2020! It was later released to the podcast feed. Over the past couple of months I have created almost 10 new shows for this fantastic series. They will slowly be released to the podcast feed over the course of the year. It takes a very different approach to what we normally do and throws your brain into mixed genre mayhem or melancholy bliss. 2 exact same song titles or 2 similar song titles from 2 different bands. Sometimes its 2 robust distinct styles going head to head in this lyrical mess of audible manipulation..lol This show will have you thumping your heels from rock to country to pop and back again! I try to set the song titles up where the next 2 songs are of similar styles until it changes and moves on accordingly. Its a blast!  Catch more Halshack news at my website! Halshack.comCatch the ALL NEW 24/7 radio station at ZENO FM!

Time for summer fun! Who knows where the music will take you so lets get in the car and DRIVE baby! This will continue my famous theme show that started it all. Destination Unknown 1 was a sure fire hit!!! Lets capture the magic of the road again with a theme show full of "drive" titles or being on the road and reference titles for movement to unknown destinations and places. Summer as you know is a great time for travel or just taking a leisurely drive across the landscape no matter where you live in this world. Here in the USA taking a road trip is a favorite past time of ours. America is so big you can drive for hours and not even leave one state. You need to enjoy your road trip too while you pass the time in the car, truck or RV. That's what the Halshack is for! Hours of boring car rides can seem like a dull time when you think about it but your music destination is just around the corner with a touch of a button. So next time you need to spend some time in the car whether its driving to your family vacation or heading out to do errands you might as well enjoy the road while finding your final destination. So hop in the car and download or stream your favorite music guru of the radio dial!! Finding some of the best most qualified examples of rock bands and pop artists to Americana and country. Americas roads are full of backstory and rich heritage as well as the roads and highways of the world. There are bands in this show from England and Europe! Diversity in culture and musical styles is what drove 90s radio to be the best time for tunes in history! Were bringing that back again!Stream or download here or everywhere from Itunes to Iheart to Amazon Music plus many more!! Find the tracklist under Shacklists at my website Halshack.comMore news to come on the Shackhole at the Axehole in Lexington and the High Rock Music Fest at Caraway Speedway! New Ep 28 full talk and music show be out soon with all new artists for Shacknation 13! Get to voting in the Battleshack 4 contest please! Time is running out for those of you have not had your voices heard to build your own show for Battleshack 4 fan appreciation episode!!See you soon!! 
Lets get back to basics folks!! The 80s/90s were the king of the road for music! Diversity in music is what makes the culture of the world spin out on the airwaves. Back in the day we opened our ears and eyes and our borders to music from all over the world from the British Invasion to South African vibes to Gregorian chants even...lol Its a crime that music has flown in the direction it has. Newcomers (DARKBIRD) from Austin, TX are certainly not guilty of any musical "Crimes" as their new hit has soared in for a landing on the Halshack! I'm glad they decided to pick my landing zone and launching pad for their band. We will do what we can to help Darkbird build a nest here at my show!We even got super lucky to land Belinda Carlisle and Gabe Lopez in a new duet "California Blues". We are absolutely not feeling the blues around the Shack these days! I'm honored to have their support!  Over the years the labels seemed to have forgot where quality meets innovation and "catchy" writing skills as well as pro experience to produce a top hit. The hits of today fail in comparison on many fronts from the forefathers and mothers of popular music of the past. Its not about "Get off my lawn"!! or "Kids today and their music"...lol It's about the very quality of whats being produced from an objective professional perspective. That all stopped about 10 to 15 years ago. That's when the decline of diversity set in and we only have what we have today at the top. We cant forget what "powerhouse hits" came well before the industry decided to stop looking for real singer songwriters and closing our musical borders to the knowledge of the world radio sphere. Its a "crime" that no one knows these bands exist and could compete with the greats of the past! Its a "crime" that there's no central place for music where we can share in that collective experience that made our world so connected without the internet or our phones. These new technologies have made us less connected than ever before!Lets rock 80s/90s!! Pop wave, Brit wave, Americana/rock in this show!! Have fun!!Up next maybe Ep 28 Shacknation 13 (full talk and music) or another theme show, not sure yet! Whatever it is, it will be great as always from your trusted guru of the radio dial!We got some BIG announcements coming soon about the High Rock Music Festival and the Shackhole down at the Axehole in Lexington NC!Find my show everywhere on Itunes, Iheart Radio, Podomatic, Deezer, Amazon Music and many more!Halshack.com you can find everything here including the tracklist at the SHACKLISTS page!Halshack.com/shacklistsThanks so much for becoming a fan! Help spread the word! This has been a 10 year passion project with no money made! Time to turn Halshack into an LLC and start the income stream for the bands with festivals and much more!
Brand new Reverbnation Campaign #7 (Rap Shack 13) almost 1000 submissions so far and these roughly 20 new artists were chosen to be a part of my special rap/hip-hop series that's been earning many accolades throughout the industry. The nature of music is a funny thing. True it's ever changing but good quality acts don't usually go against the grain. Nature gave humans the ability to vibrate with the world in musical bliss across multiple genres and styles from new to classic and from young to old. Rap/hip-hop/R&B is deeply rooted in blues/jazz/gospel buried in the rich history of the backwoods also city pubs and clubs of the south.Rapshack thirteen is lean, mean, and green with the rising talent that can only be found out there in the indie wilderness of hip hop land. Take a musical hunting trip through the vast prairie of rap/hip-hop sounds that are a rare find from the usual habitat of the top music market. Rest assured you can always escape the insanity of the world as you spend some quality time outside the "concrete corporate" musicsphere with the Halshack! Lets all get back to the basics of what the last 30 years of hip-hop has taught us about writing a good catchy tune and that would be................It's all in the melody! Melody is the key to unlocking the sweet spot of rap infusion. There was once a day when rap was one dimensional and kept in a box. That box has exploded to an artistic robust world of music that only nature herself could have created. Catch my boy "IamTonyDomingo" with his debut track "You're Missed"  (featuring the cool beats of UK producer 2Deep with sweet soft vocals by Marian) on the worldwide Halshack airwaves hailing the mountains of Tennessee. Try not to let the insanity of the world get you down like Leroy Booker with his new track debut "I'm Insane". Hope you have a good journey through the backwoods and down the backroads to visit my RAPSHACK.
