The Power Hour, the new rock and metal talk TV show, has been given a seven-episode extension by AXS. The impressive list of upcoming guests includes Five Finger Death Punch’s Ivan Moody, In This Moment’s Maria Brink, Falling in Reverse’s Ronnie Radke, Mammoth WVH’s Wolfgang Van Halen, and several others.
Hosted by Matt Pinfield (MTV, VH1), Caity Babs (SiriusXM’s Octane) and Josh Bernstein (Revolver Golden Gods, Loudwire), the show premiered on Feb. 15 after initially launching on the Danny Wimmer Presents Twitch channel. The show mixes in insider information and commentary, music videos and exclusive interviews, serving as a necessary catch-all for fans of heavy music.
“DWP lives and breathes rock ‘n’ roll so we are incredibly excited to be bringing more episodes of The Power Hour to AXS TV,” enthuses Chamie McCurry, Chief Marketing Officer at Danny Wimmer Presents. “The fan feedback around Matt, Caity and Josh is next level and we can’t wait to see what they do next!”
