Sponsored by Jolly Time popcorn, Season 2 of The Power Hour debuts Oct. 5 on its new night — Thursdays at 11pm ET / 8pm PT, and the first episode will feature Chris Shiflett (Foo Fighters), Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top), Aaron Lewis (Staind) and Pat Monahan (Train).
“We’re riding the unstoppable wave of momentum with The Power Hour, and it’s a thrill to have Caity Babs, Matt Pinfield, and Josh Bernstein back for Season Two,” said Danny Wimmer, founder of Danny Wimmer Presents. “As the only show on television devoted to and featuring Rock & Roll, there is no better place to get your fix than The Power Hour on AXS TV.”
Other confirmed guests for Season 2 include Lars Ulrich (Metallica), Green Day, The Black Keys, Caleb Shomo (Beartooth), John Taylor (Duran Duran), Chris Robinson (The Black Crowes), Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses), Joe Satriani, Wolfgang Van Halen (Mammoth WVH), Courtney LaPlante (Spiritbox), Justin Hawkins (The Darkness), Daryl McDaniels (Run-D.M.C.), Ian Astbury (The Cult), Nancy Wilson (Heart), and other talent from the rock and metal community.
“The lineup of Rock & Roll legends we have for Season 2 of The Power Hour is comprised of some of the biggest names in music history,” said Pinfield. “Many of these artists I have known for years and consider friends, but being able to have them join the show with Josh and Caity is a new career highlight for me. We’re just as excited to turn viewers on to all of the new bands we’ve been discovering and premiering, who are the future of Rock music.”
