LAKE COUNTY – From the hills of Lake County in Northern California comes a thunderous rock sound that can only be ... Faded At Four.

Lake County's own rock band Faded at Four will drop by Esoterica on KPFZ Friday night after their performance at Molly Brennan's.

Host Rhyschenda will be talking to the guys about their lives, their music and the journey they're taking as musicians. They'll also discuss music in general as well as the genres of hard rock and metal in the 21st century.

Faded At Four presents its listeners with strong beats, powerful lyrics and intense songs straight from the souls of this five-member crew. They believe that music is more than a mix of sounds, it is a compilation of life experiences and emotions that they have been given the gift and ability to share with their fans. Each member of the band brings their own talents and views and it is a mix of all of these that makes Faded At Four the powerhouse rock band that they are.

Esoterica plays inspirational brews of soothing exotic music, deep stillness and dynamic rhythms. More than flowing New Age, more than trance, more than driving drums, Esoterica features music you won't hear over the air everyday — the best in world music, traditional and contemporary, experimental, alternative, New Age and sacred music. Many shows are themed by genre, region or the calender.

Eight times a year, shows are themed for the changing seasons and the old Celtic holidays: Yule (Winter Solstice), Imbolc (Feb. 2), Ostara (Spring Equinox), Beltane (May Day), Summer Solstice, Lammas (Aug. 2), Mabon (Autumn Equinox) and Samhain (Halloween). Each show differs in format and may include music, poetry, prose readings & special guest interviews to celebrate the season.

For late night listeners, call-ins are always welcome at 707-263-3435.
