Welcome, Bog Iron!

Irish Traditional beaten with a shovel made from pure Hard American ROCK! Please welcome Bog Iron from Monterey to SalinasRadio.com, and be sure to check them out at their website, BogIron.com.

Bog Iron

Born in the fog of the Monterey Bay, Bog Iron is a Celtic rock band with deep roots in the hard rock tradition. We formed in early 2008 with our original lineup: John Michael, Chris Burke, Tim Burke, Patrick Golden, and Dave Holodiloff. In the summer of 2008, Steve Lenard and Peter Sheehan replaced the Brothers Burke, and Dave Holodiloff played his last show with us on St. Patrick’s Day 2009. Currently, we have John Michael on vocals and Peter Sheehan on bass, both Ireland-born; and Patrick Golden (guitars, originally from Bakersfield, CA) and Steve Lenard (drums, originally from Downers Grove, IL).

“Rock, Metal, and Acoustic” Beta – Live!

"Rock, Metal, and Acoustic"

"Rock, Metal, and Acoustic"

SalinasRadio.com is all about local music and promoting every single type of music out there, however, we realize that some of our listeners have specific tastes in music, and just as a Jazz lover wouldn’t want to hear a Heavy Metal song every other track, the same goes for Metal Heads who might not enjoy Blues as much. So our next step in making SalinasRadio a more enjoyable station to listen to, is splitting the station up into Genres!

Since we already have a TON of Rock, Metal, and Acoustic bands on board, I figure this is a good place to start. As we get more of other Genres, I will give them specific stations as well.

“Rock, Metal, and Acoustic” is a station for people who love the sound of a good guitar, a mean bass, strong vocals, and hard drum beats. Everything from the Rock and Roll sounds of Rum & Rebellion, to the Metal antics of Counter Clockwise, and even the smooth Acoustic sounds of Rene Velarde. You’ll find it, on SalinasRadio “Rock, Metal, and Acoustic.”

Counter Clockwise

Counter Clockwise

Counter Clockwise

“Counter Clockwise is from Monterey, CA. Founded by the metal driven guitarist Jason. Jason and drummer Reggie began a quest for a balls out bass player. By Discovering Greg. The band developed a solid foundation of rock riffs backed by heart pounding power. Completing this astounding line-up with Roman, COUNTER CLOCKWISE began its transformation into a rock hard performing metal machine, playing at such places as The Pound in San Francisco, The Catalyst in Santa Cruz, Velvet Jones in Santa Barbra and in their home town at the Lava Lounge and Monterey Rock and Arts Festival. Counter Clockwise hopes to continue to expand their horizons and their warped musical minds. COMING SOON to a stage near you!!!” - MySpace.com/CounterClockwiseWorld
