Johnny Stevens of Highly Suspect Opens Up About the New Record, Happiness & More! | Chuck Shute

[@KimTownsel]

I was lucky enough to be at the first show of their 2024 intimate tour. As promised, Highly Suspect played their new album (AASB) straight through and gave us a rousing "Bath Salt" encore. Look forward to my next show (#5).

[@ChuckShute]

That sounds amazing!

[@LegS-fo3fb]

I was also a lucky one. Saw them at their Detroit show. It was unforgettable & EPIC!! They really gave us something special with that tour & the album. Love HS & the album so much! Gotta see them in Sept.! #3 ❤MCID✌️

Fantastic interview. I appreciate the way you listen and not just hear, and that you base your questions on what he said vs. just asking a list of questions by rote. I appreciate Johnny's willingness to be so upfront and vulnerable. That's why their lyrics are so profound and cerebral. 10 outta 10.

[@ChuckShute]

@@StellarTee thanks for watching! I appreciate the feedback!

Excellent interview. Thank you for not interrupting him and just letting him express himself.

[@ChuckShute]

I always try to not interrupt, but sometimes it’s accidental. Thanks for watching! 🙏

It's so great to see and hear Johnny feeling happy. 2020 through most of 2023 was rough for him in his personal life. MCID, love you JC!

[@MeganCeleste]

I've been to a lot of shows in my life. I saw highly suspect on the MCID tour. I can CONFIDENTLY say highly suspect is the only band of any genre I have ever seen that was insanely impressive, unexpected, and I'd even say BETTER live. I had moments like, "damn Johnny is so cute look at him showing off." 😂 This band is so under-rated if you are reading this and have not seen them live...DO IT ASAP. I've never been so impressed by a live performance. Johnny VIOLATES instruments and when you witness it- you realize you definitely have a soul because there's no other way to explain the emotion it invokes! MCID MFS! 🤘🏼🔥

[@ChuckShute]

@@MeganCeleste I need to see them live!

[@LegS-fo3fb]

​@@ChuckShuteYes you do!! You won't be sorry!

[@zachcornette5532]

Must see Show. Musicianship

[@merrillolen9555]

I got my tickets. I'm seeing them in January. I can't wait.

[@jasondeftones1]

The album is great. They crushed it at the roadrunner. Love seeing them live

[@ChuckShute]

So glad johnny found his way. Too many have we lost early.

[@ChuckShute]

@@kidonspank agreed! Thanks for watching! 🙏

[@terry2315]

When I saw the video of them playing in England I about shit. When he was playing he looked exactly like me at that age. It wasa freaky. I am glad he's doing better. I like this band they should have gone farther than they have.

[@ChuckShute]

@@terry2315 agreed, thanks for watching! 🙏

[@oldenoneinMT]

@terry2315 Definately - I've always been amazed that they aren't bigger. I've been checking their tour schedule for a few years. They're actually going to be in Montana in Oct. and i can't make it 😕
