Autumn Kings' Jake Diab joins L.A. Lloyd for a face-to-face conversation in Austin that tracks the band’s full evolution—from an AC/DC concert at 12, to mastering Guitar Hero before ever touching a real instrument, to grinding through years without a safety net. That path leads straight into “Gone, Gone, Gone,” a track co-written with Charlie Scene of Hollywood Undead that captures a band no longer searching, but fully locked in. This isn’t just the story of where they started—it’s the moment everything connects.

This isn’t a surface-level promo hit—this is Billy Morrison pulling the curtain all the way back. He joins LA Lloyd for a conversation that cuts into the real stuff: evolving without selling out, the truth behind “Becoming” with Sully Erna and Nuno Bettencourt, and why keeping it raw in the studio mattered more than making it perfect. He also digs into the mindset behind Hollow and reflects on that long-awaited No. 1 moment with Ozzy Osbourne on “Crack Cocaine.” Honest, unfiltered, and the kind of conversation you don’t usually get.

Hung with Autumn Kings’ Jake Diab at Come And Take It Live in Austin—solid dude, great conversation, and a band that’s been putting in the work for a long time.

We got into everything from his first AC/DC show at 12…to how Guitar Hero III turned into a real career…to where they’re at now with “Gone, Gone, Gone.”

Zahna joins L.A. Lloyd for a raw, high-energy conversation on her latest music—including the explosive single “Defiler”—and what she calls the “evil twin” evolution of her previous album Stronger Than Death. She breaks down writing songs in days, working with Brian Head Welch’s crossover label, and balancing life in a husband-wife band. From vocal discipline to faith, doubt, and pushing into new rock territory, Zahna proves she’s built for the long haul—and not backing down.

Story of the Year frontman Dan Marsala joins LA Lloyd to break down the explosive success of A.R.S.O.N., why “Gasoline” is becoming one of their biggest radio hits ever, and how the band has stayed true to their sound for over 20 years. From balancing family life and a career resurgence to navigating evolving music trends and building a multi-generational fanbase, this conversation dives into the heart of a band that never chased the moment—they outlasted it. Plus, insight into their songwriting process, live set strategy, and what’s next with new tour dates on the horizon.

From “Last Resort” to sold-out arenas worldwide, Jacoby Shaddix has lived every high and low rock ‘n’ roll can throw at you — and he’s still standing. In his 20th appearance on Rock 30, Jacoby joins LA Lloyd for a conversation that goes way beyond the music.
He breaks down the grind behind the massive “Rise of the Roach” tour, the mindset it takes to keep pushing after decades in the game, and the emotional weight of hearing fans say his songs kept them alive. Then the conversation takes a deeper turn — as Jacoby opens up about faith, recovery, and how his relationship with Jesus Christ continues to guide him through the chaos.

ARCHITECTS | Co-Host | March 21-22, 2026

Architects frontman Sam Carter is back on the Rock 30 with me for his fourth co-host appearance—and this one hits on every level.

We talk about the discipline behind the road, the intensity of their new single “Broken Mirror” (and what it took to bring that video to life), and the momentum behind their No. 1 hit “Everything Ends.”

One of the coolest moments? Sam gave major props to American rock radio and how watching that song climb week after week helped fuel the band’s rise in the U.S. 🇺🇸

Real conversation. No fluff. Just how it all came together.

Papa Roach | Rock 30 Guest Co-Host | March 14–15, 2026

Another milestone for Papa Roach frontman Jacoby Shaddix as he joins LA Lloyd on the Rock 30 for his 20th guest appearance. Jacoby was one of the very first artists to co-host the countdown when Rock 30 launched in 2000 — the same year Papa Roach exploded onto the scene with “Last Resort.” That breakout moment put the band on the map and began a career that would prove their staying power for decades to come.
