@entirelypr Q&A With The Ninth Band



1. Where are we talking from today?

Brooklyn, NY

2. How is 2018 treating you so far?

With a baby, band stuff and starting a new job it’s been utterly nuts but also amazing!

3. How did you get involved in music?

Music first hit me when I heard the guitar solo in Let it Be (the album version with the solo that comes in hot) when I was around 10. The tone, the bends, the feel, the attack — I didn’t know what those things were at the time but it blew my mind.

4. When did you make music a priority?

After college I played in an amazing band called Willie Mays Haze that was going for it but never went anywhere, because that is what happens in this industry and with life. And so I went to law school but am now trying to bring music back into the fold with this band.

5. What inspires you daily to write & record music?

It’s the most fun and satisfying thing in the world; like solving a challenging math or logic puzzle only you get to be creative and add harmonies and sweet guitar solos.

6. Name 1-2 highly influential musicians that you listen to & respect?

Donald Fagen is my #1 of all time.

7.  When it comes to how the music enthusiast listens to your album do you prefer they buy or stream and why?

No preference!

8.  Do you have an album/EP out now that readers should check out or are you about releasing singles?

Yes, the Ninth’s debut EP “The Answer” is up on Spotify here:

Also Apple, Amazon, etc. — just search for it and know there’s another artist called The Ninth who shares our name but makes EDM music we have nothing to do with (but I’m sure is great if you’re into that).

9. Music wise, what are you working on?

Getting ready for our show at the Nest in Brooklyn on 7/20. Also learning lots of interesting covers because my family's about to take a beach vacation and I like to provide the entertainment.

10. Do you have any plans to tour?

No immediate plans

11. When you are not making music what else do you enjoy to do?

Hanging with my amazing wife Elissa and baby Zach, and our three-legged cat Oscar.

12.  Where you @ online?

Grisly BK releases crazy cocaine influenced hustler’s anthem "Robe On A Pope"

The up and comer Grisly Bk is back at it with a hot trap track -Robe On A Pope- music video. The hard gangsta music brought to mind The Notorious B.I.G.’s debut Ready to Die, unleashed back in 1994. The track highlights open-air crack deals, robberies at gunpoint on the A train and shootouts with the NYPD . The Brooklyn, New York’s rap artist Grisly BK has successfully brought the past into the present with his style. The superior mix constitutes content from the past that’s still relevant at the present. I like Grisly’s ability to embrace emotions as he delivers this track, be able to tone remarkably well yet the track is damn aggressive. If you’re hanging on the fence about this talented artist, be sure to check his E.P, two mixtapes and two singles to get a glimpse of this lyricist. This track portrays an artist that grew up on gangsta music in the crack era. It’s without a doubt that he listened to guys like Kool G Rap , I’m glad we have someone representing Brooklyn so dam

WWE TLC - No Tables No Ladders No Chairs?

TLC Highlights  The WWE paper view definitely lived up to the hype, well i guess. The paper view itself was great. Every match on the card was exciting, entertaining but there was just one problem, no tables no ladders no chairs. To call itself a TLC paper view the only match that used anything of the sort was the main event. The rest of the nights card featured traditional matches in traditional style. As mentioned earlier over all the matches were great but if your going to call it a TLC paper view actually have matches involved with tables, ladders and chairs.  Asuka vs. Emma  Winner - Asuka  Cedric Alexander & Rich Swann vs. Gentleman Jack Gallagher & The Brian Kendrick Winners - Cedric Alexander & Rich Swann  Raw Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss vs. Mickie James Winner - Alexa Bliss WWE Cruiserweight Champion Kalisto vs. Enzo Amore Winner - Enzo Amore  Finn Bálor vs. AJ Styles Winner - Finn Balor  Kurt Angle, Dean Ambrose &
