The main reason I love Jonny Hawkins and the band is that I feel like there's someone else that shares the same mentality as I do. Being able to relate gives me reassurance.
Hey I got to witness a tiny bit of Nothing More coming up. I remember something like 20 years ago they were a tiny little core band and Johnny was the drummer back then. They came through a couple of times at the club I was a bookie for and ran sound for. And then I took a different direction in life for a few years. Came back to running sound at a club and Nothing More came through. This was in support for the album with “Jenny” and “ballast” and these guys BLEW ME AWAY! Johnny was now on vocals. There was a whole stage show. They did a wicked 3 man bass solo. And as the sound guy I worked with them that night. Although I had worked with them before, it was different this time. I could tell they were on a whole different level than most of the bands that came through the club. First off they were SUPER PROFESSIONAL about how they handled themselves. Also they were just simply the sweetest group of guys I’ve ever met. So humble and down to earth. They knew they knew they have been working hard and it was starting to pay off but they didn’t let that leak into an ego thing. They were just super cool and it left a lifelong impression on me.
This video premieres in 18 minutes from now. I hope it reflects some of what I’m saying here. These guys deserve the world right now. They work hard and they are so cool about it.
In 2014 around when the self titled record came out, I heard them do an interview on Octane and then Here’s to the Heartache came on and I was blown away. What hooked me is their crazy style, strong dynamics, and equally strong melodies that stick in your brain all day long. So happy watching their trajectory ever since.
discovered these guys on youtube back in 2014 and was BLOWN AWAY, Im so happy their getting the recognition they deserve, cant believe its already been 10 years since then. Their manager hit me up on fb one time when they were in town opening for HellYeah and i commented something like oh have a great show, so bummed it was sold out id love to be there and their manager will hit me up and offered tickets and a chance to meet the guys….i saw the message 2 days AFTER the show 😂😂 ill regret that forever lol being a drummer who likes to sing myself they were just an inspiration right away, and still are. New album is PHENOMENAL
We used to have big house parties at my house back in 2007. Nothing More used to always come over for the after-party when they were in town after their shows. Jonny was the drummer at the time. Trey Graham was the lead singer. Josh was on guitar along with Mark. One time Jonny left his bag at our house and I spent $100 to ship it back to San Antonio. So, Jonny, you owe me $100.
🤣🤣
I discovered nothing more early 2023, I love their unique music..
I discovered Nothing More in 2015 I think when someone posted their song Jenny in Twitter.
Was blown away by the song and I said to my hubbie, hey listen to this. This band is amazing.
Just like me, he was blown away too and big fans every since. Seen them already 6 times live.
Their concerts are BEYOND aMazing !!
🖤Don't Stop feat. Jacoby Shaddix .good God do I love that song so much? Yes I Do!★☆
Awesome interview. I have a lot of respect for Jonny, Mark, Dan, and Ben. Congrats on the success, it’s well deserved.
i listened to Nothing More back when Jenny was on the radio, and i was so blown away by their unique style i looked up their other music and just fell in love with the band. the album The Story we tell ourselves was the first album from any band where i loved every single song, loved it so much when they lost to concrete and gold by foo fighters i was pissed.
I appreciate his story so much. Thank you and your band for inspiring me through your storytelling music, Jonny!
I wish id discovered them years ago. I literally have Spirits and Carnal on repeat. Their music makes me feel better no matter what im going through ❤
i know that feeling, but man, it doesnt matter if you found them today or a decade ago, as long as you enjoy the music
Saw them open for Wage War in April. They put on a great show. Excited for this new album
Just got the album delivered today. It’s 🔥🔥🔥They always deliver!
I've loved this band for a while now. Happy to see they are becoming bigger. They are so good live. Seems like a great group of guys. Great interview.
I came across Nothing More on a back road trying to find a radio station and the only one to come in was super fukkin staticky and I could barely barely hear the high note lyric "this is the time that we let it go" and kinda nothin else..so when I got home I honestly thought it was Mariah Brink and I jus couldn't find it until I member the hook and searched "this is the time that we let it go new song" and NOT A SiNGLE MISS on the entire album..it was the very first cd I ever spent money on to have in my car..most everyone else I like I jus TH-cam. I love this band and have since I found them in one of the darkest spots of my life...their lyrics and melodies to this day get me through so much. Then I found The Butterfy Effect a cpl years ago and they hit my soul too..if yall don't know bout them you need to lookem up..they're and Australian prog rock band and they get me...they've a more Chevelle mixed in with Muse a Lil bit of a sound but in the best way..anyways sorry for blowing yall up
jonny and the rest of the band are the nicest dudes. met them a couple of years ago when they came to my city. amazing songwriters, very down to earth and one of the most innovative and inspiring bands of the last 10 years imo.
if you can, you should absolutely see them atleast once. their live shows are incredible.
Great chat. I have so much respect for Jonny & the whole band. I can relate so much to how they grew up & how they've evolved over the years.
So happy that we got to see more interviews with NoMo!!
Saw the guys in manchester uk a few years ago with papa roach.. i was there for nothing more papa roach was a bonus. Keep getting bigger guys your music is sick..🤟
Thanks for the great interview. You asked really interesting questions
I found Nothing More through a reaction channel (Alex Hefner...I think that's his name...), and was blown away. 5 or 6 of their songs helped me through the rehashing of a break up from 15yrs ago (She and I were finally able to really let it all out and be honest with each other and have the closure we never got. Hard and sad, but good in the end). To be honest I didn't know they had a new album...going to listen to it now. Fun interview, thanks for all the work you do!
🤘
Just love listening Jonny Such a nice guy Thanks for this
If It Doesn't Hurt....damn that song rocks!!!
Я рада, что узнала об этой группе несколько лет назад. Совершенно случайно. Это одна из самых крутых групп, которые я слышала. И одна из немногих, которые я слушаю. Их музыка потрясающая, вокал Джонни и бэк-вокал Дэна - это что-то!
Thanks for this interview! I love this band. Their music is incredible! And Johnny is so cute and charming!☺🤗
Loved nothing more since earlyir 2010s that boice and the mixing is incredable
Shout out @ 7:00 to will from pushmonkey… only real OG know what I’m talking about
I saw them open for Chevelle in 2014 and was completely won over. Instantly was a fan and have seen since. Their new album Carnal is their best album since the self titled record 🤘🏼🤘🏼
I have such a great respect for the whole band Nothing More and their stories.
nothing more's music has made a huge impact in my life. *edit* Nothing More was my fave live show besides Tool
Never heard of his band some how but I really like him from watching this vid. He comes across as a super genuine good dude.
I remember seeing them 12 years ago at joes grotto in Phoenix, their drum stuff was so cool especially in an intimate venue like that
I've listened to nothing but this album since release, I can't help it
Allways great to see Jonny
Just don’t wanna see him behind the wheel
LOVE NOTHING MORE !!!👍🤘
Never heard of him / them. Ok just checked them out . New fan here.👍👍👍🍻🍻
Lmao noob
Sweet! They have nothing but great music and vibes.
@@calgoalden4686 AND ??
They're pretty awesome. Kinda sad it took me so long to discover them tbh
@@chrisconny2285 You gonna cry? cry for me
New album coming out!? Dude yess
Came out today
@@kylefuller6702 !!
Love nothing more great band
Would have liked to hear more about the beginning of the band with the many singers they had. Jonny is the best, but those first two records, Vandura and Save You/Save Me have great material, and the other singers provide a unique sound to their development. Last Crusade of Burkina Faso, Noise Without Sound, Welcome Home, and Somewhat Proud are all great pre-Jonny-vocals tracks
Nothing More??!!! LETS GOOOOOOOO
New album, Carnal , kicks some serious ass !!!!!
🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
👍🏻🤘🏻😊
I came here to listen to Johnny Hawkins story and the interviewer kept going way off topic. Other than that it was nice to learn more about Nothing More and Johnny.
So at what point do we have a NoMo / Periphery song come out? Id love to hear a crossover from both sides (Jonny in a Periphery song, Spencer in a Nothing More song).
His dad Kip Winger? lol. Definitely some similarities!
The fact this guy doesn't know about The Few Not Fleeting is piss poor preparation. I think it's their second best album by far. If you haven't heard it, treat yourself.
I thought that was a young kip winger
How's this dude not related to Curt Hawkins? Edgeheads rule!
I know its all subjective but Spirits imo is better than Carnal and it looks like reviewers are saying the same thing unfortunately. Cant wait to see the next album!
It's because Carnal doesn't slow down anywhere. They needed one acoustic song to really even out the album and it would have been much better
@@orbitwhitegum7 I wouldnt even say that. again all subjective, I just found all the songs were more formulaic and more radio friendly than Spirits.. Which made the album lack in just attacking your ears.
...and then he found me on the Manson forums.
Jonny, how you gonna dog WV like that? :P
Why is he wearing pants from baby gap?
Prolly cause he wants to.
Is it the story about running over his girlfriend with a truck?
He covered all that over a year ago. He didn’t hide anything. Court documents proved he wasn’t BS’ing when he told his side of the story….move on! Turns out she was playing victim when they were both at fault!
@@edschobs5204 sure thing Ed
Interview was kinda shitty. Johnny was good. But the interviewer should have done a little more research on him and the band in general. It's kinda cringe when you don't even know when they're first album came out dude. Do better.
the only band my girl showed me that i fuck with'
