Lead singer/guitarist Chris Babbit of Taking Dawn checked in from the road with Hardrock Haven to talk about their debut Roadrunner Records release Time to Burn; their new single “Time To Burn;” why they covered Fleetwood Mac’s “The Chain”; expectations from the new release; if they’ve ever heard of Babylon A.D.; and a whole lot more.
Taking Dawn is a brand new band that is clearly influenced by ’80s Hard Rock/Heavy Metal and wear their influences with pride and reckless abandon. Babbit doesn’t hold back anything — the honesty, anger and quick wit is all available to hear in the interview. Tune in now to get to know their interesting frontman, and pick up Time to Burn immediately thereafter.
