Sound Matters episode #127 features Tom's conversation with Nathan James from the supergroup Iconic and the UK's Inglorious. Admittedly, I didn't know much about vocalist Nathan James until diving into some research about him and listening to his previous records with Inglorious. Great singer with an ear for melody... this alone is worth checking him out. The new supergroup Iconic's debut album Second Skin also featuring Michael Sweet, Joel Hoekstra, Marco Mendoza, and Tommy Aldridge is a cut above many of these types of projects put together by Frontiers Records. With the caliber of talent assembled here, my expectations were high. They did not disappoint. This album rocks, and has the hooks present throughout to keep you coming back. I was sure what to expect with Nathan but found him to be charming and transparent. We dig into his old band, this new band, his approach to songwriting and his career, as well his what he feels is misunderstood about him as a person. Don't miss this one!
