As Coal Chamber gets ready to hit the stage as part of the Sick New World festival in Las Vegas, NV tomorrow (Saturday, April 25), Coal Chamber drummer Mikey “Bug” Cox is today making his own personal revelation that he has been fighting–and winning—a battle with cancer. As a result of his recovery, he is proud to announce his partnership with Fxck Cancer to hold a special auction of a custom one-of-a-kind drum kit from ddrum with proceeds going to cancer support and research.

Here’s a statement from Mikey “Bug” Cox:

“GRATITUDE. It’s a word that gets thrown around a lot, but it hits differently for me these days.

April 1, 2025, I was diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer. I’m not unique. It feels like a lot of us are dealing with this or know someone who is. It’s dark, it’s scary, and it changes the lives of everyone in its orbit.

The first thing I said to my wife was that I was going to fight with everything I had for my family! There were a lot of days I couldn’t make it out of bed, but I didn’t want cancer to define me. So, I finished building the house I was working on with my Bash Construction Group company, and I wrote some of the best music of my life! After a yearlong battle and absolutely brutal rounds of radiation, chemotherapy, and eventually surgery, I’m so grateful to be able to say I made it to CANCER FREE.

The second thing I said to myself was that I wanted to create something positive out of this situation, and that’s where we are today. I hope you’ll join me as I partner with Fxck Cancer to auction off a custom, one-of-a-kind drum kit from ddrum, Scorpion Percussion, TRX Cymbals, and Gator Cases with proceeds to bring awareness, support and resources to those who may find themselves in this unpredictable and unwanted community of warriors.

I’ll have so many people to thank and share my story with in the coming days, and I will be highlighting some of the amazing people and organizations that are working with us to make this goal of mine a reality.

Today I celebrate life, healing, and the strength it takes to survive. 💛 I cannot wait to get back on stage post-cancer. These upcoming shows are going to be something truly special.

I chose to partner with Fxck Cancer, because of its bold, direct approach to a disease. Their work breaks stigma, encourages honest conversations, and promotes early detection in a way that resonates—especially with younger audiences and the music community. Its unapologetic voice makes the message feel urgent, relatable and empowering, helping people face cancer head-on instead of avoiding it.”

Modern rock band CRASHING WAYWARD hold nothing back in “Bullet For A Heart,” a track bursting with raging guitars, razor-sharp vocals, and an unflinching worldview that rails against hate and violence. Today (April 22), they’ve released the song’s video, for which they went all-in. At a soundstage in their Las Vegas hometown, they filmed the video with water pouring all over them to illustrate the song’s key lyrics: “Save me/Save yourself/Shower with the bullets full of heart/Lay it down/Lay your weapons down/Shower with the bullets full of heart.” Watch the video HERE, listen to track HERE, and see their tour dates below.

“When the shoot was planned,” says lead singer Peter Summit, “we had spoken of shooting in front of the rain only looking as if we were getting wet, but decided there was no way we were going to phone in this performance. So we all got in the water and delivered a performance that we only know how to do. The rain falling off us illuminated that energy and although it was a very cold night shot two days before our Pacific Northwest tour in February, we took this risk to make sure we captured the song’s true emotion and raw power.” Read a Q&A with Summit and guitarist David Harris below.

The previously released track was rebooted with Harris’ meatier new guitar parts and a sharper mix by producer Shawn McGhee (Disturbed, Drowning Pool, Strung Out, Dark Chapel), with mastering done by Pete Lyman at Infrasonic Sound. It will appear on CRASHING WAYWARD’s forthcoming six-song EP The Fight Within, out in the third quarter of 2026 on Golden Robot Records (exact release date TBA) and promises a kaleidoscopic journey through modern rock’s emotional extremes.

The EP will also include the band’s previous single “Holding For Dear Life,” hailed by the UK’s Classic Rock magazine as a “tight, groovy beefcake of a song… manages to be fiery, introspective and energizing at once– the sort of brooding intensity you can dance to.“ (March 16,2026) The song was picked by readers as “Track of the Week.” Watch the video HERE and listen to the track HERE.

The Fight Within is an electrifying and introspective release that showcases CRASHING WAYWARD—Peter Summit (lead vocals), David Harris (lead guitar), Carl Raether (bass), Tucker Jones (guitar), and Jon Gunder (drums)—at their most confident and compelling. Across the EP the band deliver top-shelf songs that, in their own words, “speak a lot about life as we know it, reflecting outward to inward.”

Q&A ABOUT “BULLET FOR A HEART”
WITH PETER SUMMIT AND DAVID HARRIS

Congrats on this new version of the song. Sonically, can you describe what the band wanted to achieve with this new version?

SUMMIT: We have been very focused on delivering each song from “The Fight Within” EP, that captures the band at its purest and want each song to sound as we went directly from stage to record. This song I was the most excited about being back in the studio with Dave working out all the guitars. He has given a performance that is truly raw emotion with a force. He has always been an advocate for “Less is more” and this song is a testament to that. We have been very fortunate to revisit this song and re-work it in a way that we felt was missed in its original release. It was missing the angst and drive that was intended when Dave, Carl and I wrote it at my house. It was written with the three of us in a room working out its melodies and structure, something we had never done before when writing together. We wanted something that hit hard like “She Builds Quick Machines” by Velvet Revolver. This is how the band performs live and thankfully we have been able to have a second chance with this song and give it the proper release it deserves.

Lyrically, the song is compelling—a very positive statement about people needing to rise above a hateful and violent world. What inspired you to write it? Particularly these lines: “Kill the buzz/Running through your once gifted tongue/Lashing out with all its false beliefs now.”

SUMMIT: I always try to leave the lyrics open to interpretation with some ambiguity, but I felt this was a message that needed to be addressed. Without naming who, I wrote this in response to a very high-profile personality who had been very open and vocal with their hate rhetoric. The last thing we need in this unquestionably polarizing world is more hate. Especially from someone who is in a position of influence to their millions of fans and followers. I was intending for the song to speak about taking action and accountability in how we address and treat each other, no matter your race, religion, gender or sexual preference. Words can be weaponized as we all see it, especially today. I wanted to make the “Bullet” represent something for good like it says in the first line of the song, “Feed the love, with the bullets full of heart.”

The video is mysterious-looking and captivating. Can you describe the video shoot, where it was shot, and how you feel it illuminates the emotional heart of the song?

SUMMIT: We are a band of many influences, which I believe has worked in our favor. When we have an opportunity to pay homage to an artist that has inspired us, I want to pay tribute to that. I have been a huge longtime fan of The Psychedelic Furs and their video for “Heaven” is one of my all-time favorites. They are performing in the rain in the freezing cold and it captured the beauty of the song perfectly. I brought the rain inspired idea to Shane O’Neal at SON Studios here in Las Vegas and told him we wanted a high energy “in your face” version of this. The rain was the perfect symbolic metaphor speaking to the lyrics of the song. “Shower, with the bullets full of heart.” When we were planning the shoot, we had spoken of shooting in front of the rain only looking as if we were getting wet, but decided there was no way we were going to phone in this performance. So we all got in the water and delivered a performance that we only know how to do. The rain falling off us illuminated that energy and although it was a very cold night shot two days before our Pacific Northwest tour in February, we took this risk to make sure we captured the songs true emotion and raw power.

The new version of the song was produced by Shawn McGhee and you. Right away, the guitars are meatier, which definitely increases the song’s thrust, and the mix/master is sharper. Can you talk about that?

HARRIS: I wanted to bring the song closer to what I originally heard in my head when Pete, Carl, and I first wrote it at Peter’s house. It was important to capture more of the band’s natural energy—the kind of rawness we bring to a live setting. We opened up the verses a bit so the track has more space to breathe, which makes the chorus land with greater impact. Shawn did a fantastic job emphasizing those dynamics in the mix, and Pete Lyman, along with his team at Infrasonic Sound, delivered a master that feels both powerful and refined without sacrificing the edge.

How would you describe the band’s musical mission? There are many influences (alternative, hard rock, post-punk, and metal) that are excitingly fused on this song.

HARRIS: At its core, our mission is simply to write great songs. The influences are all there—they’re part of who we are—but they’re never the focus. It always comes back to the song itself. If it’s honest and it connects, then it’s done its job. That’s what gives music longevity.

The video is eye-popping—with the rain effect. What was it like to shoot the video and were there any challenges?

HARRIS: It was a great experience—our first proper night shoot, which added a whole new atmosphere to the performance. Shane and Dee brought a strong creative vision from Pete’s original idea and made the process feel very natural. The only real challenge for me was trying to keep my Gretsch White Falcon from taking too much of a beating in the rain. It’s a special guitar to me, and not one you want to put at risk lightly—but sometimes those elements are exactly what help bring the visual to life.

ABOUT CRASHING WAYWARD

CRASHING WAYWARD came together in 2020 with a shared urgency to create something real. Comprised of members Peter Summit (vocals), David Harris (Guitar), Carl Raether (Bass), Tucker Jones (Guitar) and Jon Gunder (Drums), their debut album, ‘LISTEN!’, blends modern rock with sharp songwriting and a punch of emotion, capturing the tension and release of a world in lockdown. The lead single ‘Breathe’ picked up traction fast, landing on major playlists and modern rock radio across the U.S. and Canada. Produced by Mike Gillies (Metallica, The Cult), the album introduced a band with something to say, and the sound to back it up.

Recently in the studio with producer Shawn McGhee (Disturbed, Drowning Pool, Strung Out, Dark Chapel), CRASHING WAYWARD is sharpening their sound with a heavier, more direct edge. They’re touring nationally, releasing new music consistently, and gearing up for a high-profile first tour of 2026. Backed by a live show that hits with both intensity and connection, the band is building something bigger, loud, raw, and fully in tune with a new wave of modern rock fans.

Singer, songwriter, and frontman FRANKY PEREZ, acclaimed for his powerhouse voice, magnetic stage presence, and genre-blending artistry, will perform his latest single “Mad World” tomorrow night (Wednesday, April 22) on ABC-TV’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live.” His appearance with the show’s house band, the Cletones, is in celebration of the April 17 album release of DÁMELO by FRANKY PEREZ AND THE ALL NIGHTERS via The Label Group/Virgin Music Group. Listen to the album HERE and watch the colorful video for “Mad World” HERE.

PEREZ enters a bold new era with DÁMELO, a celebration of his cultural roots and musical evolution. Written, performed, and produced by PEREZ and shaped under the guidance of multi–Latin Grammy winner Sebastian Krys, DÁMELO blends Latin rhythms, timeless pop, and raw storytelling into a powerful musical bridge between cultures. The bilingual album was launched last year with the single/video “Leche for the Bebé,” featuring hip hop icon Sen Dog of Cypress Hill. Watch the video featuring Sen Dog, world-renowned visual artist Nico Roussin, and legendary B-boy Rampage HERE. It introduced audiences to FRANKY’s new chapter with an overwhelmingly positive response from both fans and critics alike.

The Las Vegas born-and-bred artist currently has an exciting Las Vegas Strip residency every Thursday night at Mandalay Bay while continuing his successful monthly residency at Red Rock Resort. It’s an immersive live experience where the heart of DÁMELO comes fully alive. Backed by THE ALL NIGHTERS—featuring guitarist Christian Brady, blistering horns, Cuban percussion, a crisp rhythm section, backup singers, and world-famous Las Vegas showgirls and dancers—FRANKY describes the 75-minute spectacle as “a sexy, genre-bending, high-energy live music experience combining deep funk, soul, rock ‘n roll, and Latin rhythms.” Watch a sizzle reel of the show HERE. Sirius XM host and personality Eddie Trunk describes the Mandalay Bay residency is a “truly great Vegas show that everyone will dig. The band is killer and Franky is a phenomenal singer and entertainer. The arrangement of the stage kind of wraps around and you’re in the show no matter where you sit. Go check it out if coming to Vegas and looking for a fun (and affordable!) live show!”

Meanwhile, this past Friday night (April 17), FRANKY and his band performed at an album release spectacular at the Carnival Midway of Circus Circus on the Strip. It was a packed free show, with showgirls and circus acts as part of this unforgettable, one-of-a-kind experience never before seen on the Circus Circus Midway.

TOTALLY TUBULAR FESTIVAL—the acclaimed multi-act ‘80’s extravaganza which originated in 2024—returns for a full 2026 summertime tour of the US launching July 17 in Phoenix and wrapping August 16 in Aurora, IL. The colorful lineup features Thomas Dolby & The Lost Toy People, A Flock Of Seagulls, The Motels, The Producers, Animotion, The Escape Club, and Tommy Tutone. See the tour dates and artist quotes below. Tickets will go on sale nationally on Friday, April 24 (10am local time).

This will be the first time Thomas Dolby & The Lost Toy People have performed together since 1988; their last show was at the Rose Bowl supporting Depeche Mode. This will also be the first time in over 25 years that The Producers (original lineup) will tour the US nationally coast to coast.

The 2026 tour comes on the heels of a hugely successful holiday tour of the Northeast. This year’s trek will hit 15 markets, including Phoenix, Denver, San Francisco, Anaheim, Hollywood, Las Vegas, New Town, ND, Washington, DC, Atlantic City, New York City, Louisville, St. Petersburg, Huber Heights, OH, and Aurora, IL with more dates to be announced.

The artists performing at this year’s TOTALLY TUBULAR FESTIVAL exploded in the pop culture zeitgeist in the 1980’s thanks mainly to the high rotation of their music videos on MTV. These artists have enjoyed a steady rise in popularity in recent years, with their music having a lasting impact.

“Totally Tubular Festival has clearly emerged in just two years as the market leader for all 80’s tours in North America, not to mention Totally Tubular is hands down the best 80’s party on the planet,” says Jon Pleeter, the festival’s creator. “For all of the fans of 80’s new wave music, the Tubular circus is coming to town—we’ll see you this summer.”

Artist quotes are below. Photos HERE.

“The current 80s music revival is more than just a walk down memory lane for those of us that were actually there. Because those born after the 80s are discovering the treasure trove of fresh musical ideas that exploded onto the scene in the heyday of MTV and KROQ. And the huge influence we had on everything that came after.”
–Thomas Dolby

“The Totally Tubular Festival invites the audience into a unique experience with hitmakers from the 80s. Every artist on the bill brings hit songs that spark fond memories. After the show, fans tell us stories of where they were and what they were doing when they first heard the song ‘Obsession.’ Then they introduce us to the next generation—the sons and daughters they brought to the show. The Totally Tubular Festival is a wonderful shared experience for both the audience and the artists.”
–Bill Wadhams, Animotion

“The 80s gave us some great songs that stand the test of time. It’s great to play to audiences, young and old who sing the words along with us.”
–Trevor Steel, The Escape Club

“I can’t tell you how many multigenerational families come to see us play on a fairly regular basis. It’s pretty encouraging when the kids of the folks you played for in the 80s are seriously into your music and sharing it with their friends. Sure it’s nostalgic for some people, but there’s nothing wrong with that because what they experienced in their youth was authentic and groundbreaking.”
–The Producers

“1980’s music = Fun. It’s all about the catchy melodies, feel-good nature of the music, fun quirky lyrics, and never taking one’s self too seriously.

Whether it was Pop, Metal, New Wave, Country, etc., 80’s music was about having fun. Just look at the 80’s fashions. 80’s music was also produced at the peak of creative analog mixing. It has a warmth, power, and freshness to it; that has since been replaced with conformity.”

–Jimmy James, Tommy Tutone

Here’s praise for TOTALLY TUBULAR FESTIVAL:

“As if in a DeLorean, Totally Tubular took us back to the ’80s on Tuesday… Some of these ’80s hit songs are so woven into the fabric of our lives, fans seemed ecstatic to get the chance to hear and see these songs performed firsthand.’”
–Andrew Sherman, Dallas Observer, 7/10/24

“The Totally Tubular Festival on Friday, July 26 at the Meadow Brook Amphitheatre was a trip in the Way Back Machine, a nearly five-and-a-half hour exercise in unabashed and unapologetic nostalgia, 80s variety.”
–Gary Graff, The Oakland Press, 7/27/24

“..one glorious night of ’80’s (synth) pop ecstasy.”
–Kevin Keating, SF Bay Area Concerts, 7/1/24

“The Totally Tubular Festival really connected with its audience at The Anthem..the festival was bursting with personality.”
–Mickey McCarter, ParklifeDC, 7/18/24

“With the venue lights emulating pink and blue neon lights and vintage tunes blaring, the amphitheater transformed into a time machine, whisking us back to an era of big hair, synth-pop, and infectious energy.”
–Jessie Fuentes, Finding Connecticut, 7/22/24
