The Return of PAULIE Z! Live music and a tribute to DAVID Z's Legacy

The Ben Maynard Program

When nostalgia collides with innovation, you get a conversation that celebrates the roots of rock and the evolution of music. In our latest episode, the magnetic Paulie Z returns to walk us through the ZO2 anthology album's journey, an offering that resurrects the joy of holding an album in your hands. We discuss the meticulous creation of a tangible music experience and the waves of positive responses from both ZO2's loyal fanbase and those hearing their tunes for the first time.
The essence of music isn't just in the sounds we cherish but also in the connections it forges. Dive into a compelling recount of my experience with Bohemian Queen, where the power of a soundcheck morphed into an electrifying live show, cementing bonds between artists and audience. We look ahead to the Avalon Theater benefit show, where the thrill of live performance promises to come full circle, reminding us of the profound impact artists have when they make their fans the stars.
In the heart of this episode, we pay homage to the late David Z and witness the transformation of his foundation, which has grown from a tribute into a beacon of musical education across the globe. Stories from a special needs school in Israel to memories of first KISS concerts weave an intricate tapestry of the lasting impression music leaves on us all. Join Paulie Z and me as we explore the nuances of songwriting, performance, and the indelible mark of a rock legacy.
