Frank Hannon and Dave Rude of Tesla join Eddie Trunk to discuss their recent Las Vegas residency and plans for new music. The guitar duo reflects on their 20-year musical partnership, the importance of personal chemistry in a band, and how they've maintained Tesla's authentic sound over four decades. Frank opens up about his emotional instrumental solo album 'Reflections' and the personal losses that inspired it, while the pair share insights about Tesla's upcoming covers project showcasing Jeff Keith's vocal abilities. They also discuss their relationships with other musicians, including Warren DeMartini and Carlos Cavazo, and the importance of trust and consistency in a long-running band. Then, Rik Emmett joins Eddie Trunk to share insights about Triumph's potential future featuring Brent Fitz, Phil X, and Todd Kerns as core members, with original members making occasional appearances. He reflects on his evolution from rock star to writer, his recent induction into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and his creative projects including poetry books and new music. He discusses the physical limitations of aging as a performer, particularly with his vocal range, while maintaining his disciplined approach to creativity and also touches on Rush's upcoming tour and his admiration for Alex Lifeson's artistic versatility beyond music.
