DLC Week of 3/31: Avril Lavigne ft. blackbear and Nita Strauss ft. David Draiman of Disturbed

“The Night Owl”

Rock Band is fun 24/7/365. Some folks like to roll out of bed and get straight to the jams. Others may find their RB time is more of an afternoon treat or rock out before they hit the hay. Then there are The Night Owls. The crews that start waking up when the rest are only dreaming about note highways, Overdrive and 5-Star performances. This week’s challenge is dedicated to the late night warriors among us.  

Fresh off of Avril Lavigne’s recently released album, Love Sux, “Love It When You Hate Me” finds the Canadian rocker teaming up with blackbear on this upbeat song exploring the highs and lows of relationships. With over 40 million albums sold, Avril Lavigne ranks as the third top-selling Canadian female artist in history. The song features some unexpected rhythm changes for drummers while both the guitars and bass parts harken back to the glory days of pop-punk excellence.

Once ranked No. 1 on Guitar World's list of "10 Female Guitar Players You Should Know", Nita Strauss has become one of the most accomplished and recognized guitarists performing today. An in-demand session player with gigs ranging from Alice Cooper’s backing band to performing in multiple globally-televised sporting events, Nita Strauss released her first solo outing, the instrumental album Controlled Chaos, in 2018. This year, Strauss became the first female rock solo artist in over three decades to reach #1 on the Billboard Hot Rock Chart with her latest single “Dead Inside” (ft. David Draiman of Disturbed).  David Draiman’s baritone vocals are the perfect match to Strauss’ highly technical playing and this is equally reflected in the challenge you’ll face trying to master this difficult song.
