For those of you who know me, I'm a huge fan of horror movies and especially the storytelling in The Conjuring series. So imagine my surprise when I see a post on MetalSucks that says something like Vera Farmiga Starts a Metal Band! Firstly...WHAT. Second, we gotta get The Yagas on the show to have a conversation. I got the opportunity to speak with Jason Bowman and Renn Hawkey from The Yagas about their new album, the formation of their band through Jason's music school Rock Academy, and the creative process behind coming up with The Yagas debut record, Midnight Minuet. Did you know Scott Ian from Anthrax may be responsible for the formation of The Yagas? Because that may absolutely be a thing. We discuss the themes present in their lyrics, their musical influences, and share personal stories that shaped their artistic journey. The conversation also touches on their favorite songs from the album and concludes with fun questions that reveal their personalities and musical tastes.As always, I also ask Jason and Renn about what musicians they'd pit in a wrestling match for the ages and what kind of match!
