In an all new episode of maniaTV’s behind the scenes music show, All Access, host Samantha Maloney spends an afternoon with former lead singer for Bush, Gavin Rossdale. Nestled in the comfort of Gavin’s LA rehearsal studio, the duo discuss what inspired his new solo record “WANDERlust” and his experience working with critically acclaimed music producer Bob Rock. Gavin also dispels the notion that he has someone else responding to his MySpace fans by confirming that he reads and responds personally. The segment ends with a special live performance of his new song, “Frontline”.
In the second half of the show, Samantha heads to Memphis, TN., where she joins former Big Star drummer, Jody Stephens, for a historic tour of the renowned Ardent Record Studios. Ardent Studios has encompassed a wide range of artists such as The White Stripes, Led Zeppelin, and R.E.M. for over 40 years.
