Real rock never dies! BuzzMusic gets up close and personal with Rich Lopez, the frontman of LA alternative rock band Clone Hero. Their debut EP “Inamorata” was one of my favorite projects to work on, as the band invited me to engineer, mix, co-produce, and perform the bass tracks. Read the interview here.
