A switchblade comb is essential for a perfect pompadour! This week’s guest on Discover New Music is Des Rocs. His brand new album “To Hell And Back” is a culmination of everything he’s been building too, starting all the way back at playing in basements at 13 years old. From ballads to gut punches, nothing was off the table for Des on this record. He also talks about his stoic approach to this album after its release and how it took him a couple records to realize that’s the best way. Plus, a quick round of Rapid Fire…and Bugs is a 10 outta 10!
