A Journey from Battlefield to Breakthrough with Eric John Horsey

Let's start the Memorial Day Weekend early and share a remarkable story of resilience and redemption. Eric John Horsey was raised on a dairy farm in South Carolina, where early lessons in hard work and determination shaped his path. That path led him into military service as a Fleet Marine Force Corpsman, where he witnessed firsthand the harsh realities of war.

But Eric’s battles didn’t end when he came home. He faced personal struggles with addiction and hopelessness—an internal war that nearly broke him. And yet, it didn’t.

Eric found his way through the darkness with faith, healing, and a renewed sense of purpose. Now, he’s using music as his voice, and his debut album, Dirty Road, is a raw, honest reflection of his journey.

It was an honor to sit down with my veteran brother, Eric John Horsey. Eric is Someone You Should Know

When The New York Times praises your music as having “crowd-pleasing ingredients,” and New York Parenting dubs you “the bestest kindie rock band in town,” you know you're hitting the right notes. For nearly two decades, Rolie Polie Guacamole has been a family favorite from coast to coast, blending energetic, interactive, and award-winning performances that entertain both kids and grown-ups. At the heart of it is Frank Gallo—a music educator, prolific performer, and child of entertainers, who joined the Screen Actors Guild before most kids learn to read. Now he’s stepping into a surprising new role as a mayoral candidate for New York City. He’s got rhythm, heart, and ambition to match. Meet my newest guest and friend, Frank Gallo, he's Someone You Should Know.

Welcome to episode 275 of the Someone You Should Know podcast—and this one’s a special treat. I get to geek out with a true legend of melodic rock: drummer, producer, and founding member of the band GIANT, David Huff! We dive into the band’s groundbreaking debut, Last of the Runaways—an album that helped define the genre—and fast forward to their powerful new release, Stand and Deliver, which came out last Friday, May 16, via Frontiers Music Srl. David shares insights on the band’s evolution, new lineup, and what keeps the GIANT sound alive after all these years. If you love big hooks, soaring vocals, and rock history, this one’s for you. David Huff is Someone You Should Know.
