Sass Jordan & Brian Tichy Just Reignited Rock—Must Watch!

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 15:00:00 +0000

Before Something Unto Nothing had a name, a label, or even a plan, Sass Jordan and Brian Tichy were just two lifers in a room chasing the sound of real rock and roll again — loud, loose, and alive. In this Press Play Radio Conversations episode, Sass and Brian join The Don, Dean Baldwin, and Tina to unpack the unexpected story behind their collaboration, the spirit of ’70s-era songwriting that shaped the record, their thoughts on AI’s impact on music, and why the newly remastered release feels less like a comeback and more like a spark for what’s coming next.

Wed, 11 Mar 2026 13:48:00 +0000

This isn’t polished for playlists.
