Mighty Glad began when Rocco DeLuca & Johnny Shepherd met & performed together with The Hallelujah Train in New York City in 2015. Rocco & Johnny's meeting resulted in a collaboration released in 2020 under the title Heavy Sun.
DeLuca & Shepherd then formed Mighty Glad and recorded a live record at Chris Rondinella's Heritage Recording Co. in Los Angeles.
The ensemble included Seth Ford-Young, Ryan Carman, Dylan Day and Lucas Guerin.
This is soul music driven by hymnal singing, steel guitar & hammond organ, with other devotional influences.
The blended voices of Johnny Shepherd & Rocco DeLuca becomes its own unique instrument.
A search for strength in hard times; to shine a light into darkness.
A prayer in the night.
The message is an open door; all are welcome.

In previous episodes, we’ve discussed the diminished role that music criticism plays in today’s market, and now we’re turning our focus towards music journalism at large. With more and more magazines and newspapers going out of business, writers find themselves with even fewer publishing options, and they’re being forced to look for work outside of the music industry. Join us this hour as we cover this topic with journalists, PR folks, and band managers, and talk about what comes next for this side of the industry.
