The band on today are Toronto based rock band One In The Chamber.  The band's sound is their own. Yet like Zeppelin, they pushed the limits, challenge standards and pull out all the stops of making music. What they put out is fantastic. Mike Biase, lead singer and guitar and drummer Gerrod Harris are here today.

New releases. Industry insiders. Out of the box conversations. Indie music. With guests from the True North, to the West Coast, to the East Coast. And Across the Pond, and Down under. And now, here's Shay.00:00:39:01 - 00:01:11:19 – ShayHey, Shay, here. And … so it begins. Thebuzzr pod, on air indie. Our first episode. Welcome and enjoy! What happened today in 1969?January 12, 1969, the rock gods, Led Zeppelin released their self-entitled debut studio album in the United States. They produced the album prior to signing to a label. Indie. Cool, eh? The band on today are Toronto-based rock band One In The Chamber.00:01:12:11 - 00:01:32:07The band's sound is their own. Yet like Zeppelin, they push the limits, challenge standards and pull out all the stops of making music. What they put out is fantastic. Mike Biase, lead singer and guitar, and drummer Gerrod Harris are here today. Welcome, guys.00:01:34:07 - 00:01:35:11 – Gerrod & MikeHi, how are you?00:01:36:29 - 00:02:02:12I'm glad to have you on and welcome. And I'm doing great, guys. Whenever I hear your music, I see a ton of different influences and not traditional music is being created from somewhere. And I like to have you discuss that and talk about that and sort of give us an idea of where you draw your inspiration from.00:02:03:02 - 00:02:42:16 - GerrodOh, I mean, that's a that's a tough question, I think. And I think the four of us would answer that very differently. We all come from very different backgrounds. Speaking for myself, I grew up listening to a ton of classic rock groups like Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Aerosmith, The Rolling Stones. But as I actually started playing the drums, it was a large amount of like 90s rock band Soundgarden, Red Hot Chili Peppers, you know, bands like that that really got me diving deeper into my instrument.00:02:45:06 - 00:03:16:02 – MikeYeah, for myself, Led Zeppelin, one hundred percent is one of my biggest influences, Robert Plant is probably one of my favorite singers, if not my favorite Jimmy Page, amazing guitar player.00:02:56:29 - 00:03:10:01And yeah, them and really old blues. I've loved Eric Clapton, Blues, Jimi Hendrix, Anything by Muddy Waters and the Three Kings, especially for guitar playing. The Three Kings were a huge influence on me learning guitar.00:03:10:03 - 00:03:28:18 - ShayYou definitely have strong vocals. Reminds me a lot of the young Robert Plant. Ahh, your sound is unique. There's something about it that sets it apart from a lot of other rock bands. Can you give me some insight into that?00:03:30:11 - 00:04:20:24 - MikeI mean, it's tough, I think, honestly, I think Cecil is so unique in the way he approaches song writing. Cecil, our lead guitar player and one of our vocalists, and he even writes a lot of lyrics for a lot of our songs. And I find that because he comes from such a jazzy background, he brings this influence in our music that is so outside of just conventional rock and roll that especially ”To The Gallows”. When he played that opening riff and it just sounded so often so creepy,
