The 'Top of the Hill' podcast takes an in-depth look at the careers of musicians who are pursuing their dreams every day. Host, musician and music journalist Bryan Rolli (Billboard, Spin, Forbes, Loudwire) goes beyond surface-level talking points to gain insights from artists about what lights a fire inside them; the act of balancing a music career with day jobs or the simple rigors of daily life; and their very own “top of the hill” moments that have given them the motivation and courage to continue doing what they love.Bryan Rolli Música

  • Episode 5: Cinema Stereo Are Getting Better All the Time
    May 30 2025

    The members of Nashville-by-way-of-Orlando rock band Cinema Stereo have been playing together for years, and they had the luxury of toiling in private as they worked out the kinks in their sound. Now they're ready to bring their vibrant, modern-vintage rock 'n' roll to the masses.


    Take it from me: My band, Ne’er-do-well, has shared the stage with Cinema Stereo twice in Austin, and both times they've won the crowd with their fiery twin-guitar leads, soaring hooks and infectious stage presence.


    Singer/bassist Ian Rayha, guitarists Will Sawyer and Sebastian Borysek and drummer Luke Pate stopped by 'Top of the Hill' to discuss the new Cinema Stereo EP 'Can't Get Close Enough,' the grind of DIY touring, the small markers of success that motivate them along the way, and why at this point in their fairly young career, they've already come too far to give up.

  • Episode 4: Old Neon's Got a New 'Resolution'
    May 23 2025

    Listening to Old Neon's brand of Warped Tour-ready pop-punk, it's tempting to say they don't make 'em like this anymore — but the Pittsburgh quintet's new EP 'Resolution' is proof that, actually, they do.

    Produced by the Wonder Years' Matt Brasch and mastered by veteran Philadelphia producer Will Yip, 'Resolution' is packed with top-down pop-punk anthems sporting gigantic hooks, soaring vocals and zesty lead guitar.

    Old Neon guitarist Mike McInnes details how the band's age gaps and diverse musical interests influenced the EP, their experience opening for modern pop-punk legends Knuckle Puck, and their commitment to building their audience one show and one fan at a time.

  • Episode 3: Lowlives Are Going for Broke
    May 16 2025

    On paper, Lowlives had a spectacular 2024, releasing their debut album 'FREAKING OUT,' going on tour with Alkaline Trio and performing at Download festival. But, as lead singer/guitarist Lee Downer puts it, they also "fuckin' ate shit."


    Downer (ex-The Defiled) and drummer Luke Johnson (ex-Lostprophets) were music industry veterans by the time they formed Lowlives, which is a fancy way of saying they'd been burned more times than they could count. So it makes sense that the minute they stopped caring about other people's ideas and started doing things on their own terms, big things started happening.


    On the latest episode of 'Top of the Hill,' Downer and Johnson talk about the long, hard road to releasing 'FREAKING OUT,' their trial-by-fire debut U.K. tour and why they just can't quit playing back-breaking (and bank-breaking) vintage amps.
