'You're The Killer' available on iTunes and Spotify! Share it if you love it!

To My Fans and Friends: As promised - here is another Unreleased Studio Track. This one is called 'Gravity'. This was a track that has been sitting in the vault for a long time and I couldn't sit on it any longer. Enjoy and share if you love it. - Sal

The reaction on 'Lover Of A Lost Cause' has been amazing. I've decided to release another unheard song... Wednesday at 7pm EST.

To All My Fans and Friends, today I have decided to share a new song for all of you. This is one of the first songs I recorded when I first left My Darkest Days. For many circumstances it was unreleased until today. It is one of my favourite songs ever that I recorded with my dear friends Cody Hanson and Marshal Dutton during those magical sessions. I love those guys so much and I love this song and it needs to be heard. Share it and enjoy. Much love, - Sal

I guess I'm proud to have been in one of the most "hated" bands in the world! Can't believe My Darkest Days made it in this clip! Kinda made me smile :) People just always hate on main stream success and legit careers! On a side note - I love Chad, he's a good buddy and he's none of the things they portray him to be. Of all the high profile "rock stars" I have toured with and are in my circle - he is by far the most down to earth and I love him!

Studio rule: You are only allowed to be in the control room if you have a dog on your lap. I like this rule.

And we're here producing the next generation... Zack & Mara! Lots of talent in this room! Good to see my brothers in Hinder

Super proud of my students (lead singer and also the guitarist) in Mental Friction!!! Been working with them teaching them vocals and guitar over the past year and they have come so far! So happy to be able to work with artists at this stage in their career!

Thought Of The Day: Monday Challenge! It's important to remove the mask and bullet proof vest so people can see us for who we really are and for us to see how great we are just the way we are and to embrace it. We sometimes have tendencies to protect ourselves too much, whether it be putting on a smile when maybe we need to cry, or proudly pushing people off when maybe we need to be letting them in. I'm guilty of this for sure. But in time I'm learning that there is nothing I can't handle and that there is more goodness, miracle and joy in my day and everyone's day than sometimes we like to give it credit for. So, with this new week starting, I offer you to take off the gear and padding and see what it's like to be socially and psychologically naked. Put yourself out there without anticipating anything more than a new experience. Be free. Be wild, but be free. SHARE.

To all my LA and Santa Barbara fans, tune into AM 1290 KZSB tomorrow at 11am PST and 9pm PST for my interview with The Jeremiah Show!
