Justin Hawkins Rides Again

46

Justin Hawkins Rides Again is where I’ll be discussing what it’s really like to be part of the lauded and loathed music industry. I'll be talking about the pitfalls of being part of this fickle business, how to navigate it, the highs and lows and what the future could hold for this volatile and beautiful art form.There will also be interviews with incredible people who work in this industry from vocal coaches, record label bosses to real life hardcore rockstars. I want to reveal to you the nitty gritty details of what this lifestyle is actually like and the affect it has on artists - so join me every Monday, right here.

    Entertaining podcast
    Justin is an entertaining fellow and his podcast is definitely worth a listen 👂👍
  • Landonzdv
    Finally the podcast is a go!!!
    Been watching on YouTube for over a year and elated to discover the podcast so that the mighty Hawkins can force his way onto my pod catcher week after week. Have loved The Darkness since the first single and, Justin, you did the rock n roll world proud with your mvp performance at the Taylor Hawkins tribute. Will be listening to on tour!
  • primamelia
    Enjoyable!

  • Sah-win
    Enthralling!
    Authentic & astute. Philosophical & funny. I would recommend for everyone; not for just those interested in music. It really is that entertaining.
  • RockiVassalino
    Love
    I love this podcast! Every once in a while as I’m working behind the bar, I’ll get people having intelligent, interesting, non contrived conversations that I absolutely love listening to, especially if I don’t have to join in. This podcast reminds me of those very rare occasions, and I look forward to every new episode. I could honestly listen to Justin talk about music, the music industry, and (almost) anything else for hours on end, and I’m going over to YouTube right now to do just that.

    Permission to Finallylistentopodcasts
    This lad Justin is superb. Charismatic, intelligent, funny and always ready to make free with the perspicacity. Love the first episode with Jenny May Finn - smiled all the way from Fort Lauderdale to Miami without once shouting at another motorist. Wonder if we’ll ever find out the full details of James Hatfield’s garbage disposal habits and whether he is able to separate his paper from his plastic from his food waste from his metal. Keep riding, Justin - I finally have a real reason to listen to podcasts.
