Violet Grohl x Alternative Press

This week on In Session, singer/songwriter Violet Grohl sits down with EIC Anna Zanes to talk about her grungy, '90s alt-rock-drenched debut, Be Sweet to Me, the impact of David Lynch on her work, and how a childhood surrounded by music informed her creative path. She tells AP about seeing Billie Eilish perform at Camp Flog Gnaw, and how that moment was when it all clicked. Not only was the stage where she wanted to be, something in her gut told her she could get there, too.

Boys Like Girls x Alternative Press

On this episode of In Session, Boys Like Girls frontman Martin Johnson fills in the band's origin story, and his own — from growing up in Boston, working at Hot Topic and hustling to get their music heard, to the success of their breakout album, 2006's 'Boys Like Girls'. He opens up about sobriety, imposter syndrome, and how different life looks today, as the band celebrate 20 and 17 years of those albums on an expansive anniversary tour and look towards the next project.

Atreyu x Alternative Press

Having formed in 1998, Atreyu aren’t the same band that practiced in an Orange County garage. They’ve evolved, growing alongside their fans as their lineup, sound, and songwriting shifted into new forms, whether proving difficult or rewarding. Sitting down with Editor-in-Chief Anna Zanes, frontman Brandon Saller opens up about their career and recent album. He also reflects on starting to scream again, how he handles the "haters," and how he's drawing inspiration from the band's early sound.

SOFIA ISELLA x Alternative Press

SOFIA ISELLA sits down with AP to unpack her creative arc — from growing up homeschooled studying the Irish fiddle and attending circus camp to standing firmly in the spotlight, opening for artists like Taylor Swift while cultivating a devoted following of her own. She explores the artistic risks that shape her sound, reflecting on how she fuses raw vulnerability, anger, and sharp social commentary with cinematic storytelling, while tracing influences that span from Trent Reznor to Billie Eilish. As an artist whose work consistently holds a mirror to the world, Isella turns that lens inward, offering an intimate look at the mindset behind her latest EP, Something is a shell ., and the enigmatic confidence driving her evolving presence.
