I didn’t even tell anyone I was doing the commercial. I kind of thought it might be on TV at three o’clock in
the morning,” Blake said when ION asked if the commercial had driven much traffic to the band. “We were
surprised by the amount of traffic it has brought!” Nick Reese said. Reese joked that it has brought so many
more hits to their website and social media sites that each bandmate may do their own
commercial…laughing that drummer Rob Sodaro may be featured in a Cadbury Egg Commercial.
Joyous Wolf has a new EP out April 19, 2019, entitled “A Place in Time.” Allard and Reese described the
recording process as easy, with all the band members contributing. “We wrote the album in about two
weeks. We couldn’t do it without each other,” Reese said, explaining they were picked up by Roadrunner
Records and the album came out immediately following the Royal Bliss Tour.
“It feels really good to have new music out,” Nick said. “When the two singles came out, we were all sick in
a hotel room after having to cancel our show in New Jersey. It was 6 a.m. and we were all too sick to even
talk. We were like high-five across-the-room, chest bump.”
“Vick’s VapoRub chest bump!” Blake joked as Nick started laughing and coughing.
