Issue 56 of Black Velvet Zine is out now and includes:

The Audition’s Danny Stevens talks about musical memories, guiding their fans, putting trust in others and what makes THEM smile so hard inside. Jimmy Eat World discuss improving your environment to nurture creativity, how ‘Gotta Be Somebody’s Blues’ is ‘probably the creepiest thing we’ve ever done’, why fans gravitate towards ‘Hear You Me’, and how some bands burn brighter but burn out faster.
Simple Plan’s Jeff Stinco and Chuck Comeau chat about upping their game, how they’ve never been more excited about the band, how there’s a jinx about naming a record before it’s finished and how ‘What If’ is about anyone in the world who’s trying to make a difference and make the world a better place. Flyleaf’s Lacey Mosley & Pat Seals discuss how an audience always takes a message from a band, an important trip to Rwanda with World Vision, how Lacey would be dead were it not for an experience with Jesus, and how there’s still plenty to be urgent about. Goldfinger’s John Feldmann tells us how magic happens when the pen hits the paper, how the horrific scenes of a baboon having its genitalia shocked inspired ‘Get Up’, how being opinionated and driven means you’re going to make enemies and how he wasn’t built to be a superstar celebrity. City Sleeps’ Ely Dye talks about how the band want to be music players rather than played musicians, how they’re going to always be bringing you surprises, how John Feldmann is probably the most honest person in the music business, and how the next album is going to make people pick up things and break things. Kids In Glass Houses’ Aled Phillips and Philip Jenkins tell us how technically you should always be your own favourite band, what fans can expect with their debut album for Roadrunner Records, how Aled wishes he wrote Rihanna’s ‘Umbrella’ song and how performing Bon Jovi’s ‘You Give Love A Bad Name’ went down a storm at karaoke. The Get Go discuss how the longer the band is together the better things fit, how finding a label that is passionate about the band is more important than its size or stature, how the fake moustache that Chris acquired for their cover of ‘We Are The Champions’ makes it ‘more real’ and how if they were a food dish, they’d be Sauerbrot with spaetzle. New Years Day’s Ash Costello reveals how she’s always loved being onstage from an early age, how the band and record gave her something to get up in the morning for, how she looks up to Motion City Soundtrack’s Justin Pierre as an artist and how she wants to beat her bandmates senseless when they lie awake doing Christopher Walken impersonations.

Relentless Tour featuring Coheed & Cambria/Madina Lake, Fightstar, Circa Survive & the Good To Go Tour featuring MxPx/Punchline/The Get Go, The Audition/You Me At Six/Just Surrender, Sum 41, The Matches, Not Advised & Jimmy Eat World
