Episode 135 - Clint Woolsey of Stone Senate

The Beyond Rad Podcast

Stone Senate has been called “a heavier version of Lynyrd Skynyrd, crossed with The Allman Brothers Band”. While being mentioned in such heady company is flattering, one thing Stone Senate is most definitely not, is a retro act. They are taking what came naturally from their collective influences a step further.

Fronted by lead vocalist/guitarist Clint Woolsey’s smoldering, soulful vocals and unmistakable stage presence, stage left and stage right are burning with dual lead guitars of James Edwards and Ted Hennington. Add to these the blood bonded rhythm section of “The Mud Brothers”- Paul Zettler on bass/vocals and David Zettler on drums/vocals and you have caught lightning in a bottle.

When thinking about the upcoming release, lead singer Clint Woolsey says,

“The album “Between the Dark and the Light” covers the entire spectrum of way up high, to the lowest lows. This feels like the best album we (Stone Senate) have done, and was written by all 5 band members (James Edwards, Paul Zettler, David Zettler, Ted Hennington, and Clinton Woosley), as well as our buddy and producer, Toby Wright. The first EP, “Dusk”, was the first batch of songs we had, and has some tasty southern rockin’ guitar licks, dark grooves, and will definitely take the listener on a picturesque ride. It rocks you up, mellows you down, and ends with an epic 6 minute song featuring a dueling guitar solo.”

And he’s right, the guitar solo achieves a legendary status. The skill level is only that of rock star esteem and is guaranteed to have the crowds cheering “encore” for each and every new song they can hear.
