Autumn Kings | Rock 30 Guest Co-Host | April 25-26, 2026
LA Lloyd sits down face-to-face with Jake Diab of Autumn Kings at Come And Take It Live in Austin. They cover the full ride—first concert watching AC/DC as a 12-year old, Guitar Hero turning into real musicianship, building the band from nothing, pushing through the shutdown years, and finally connecting with the right team at the right time. It all points to “Gone, Gone, Gone,” a track that pulls everything together and shows exactly where Autumn Kings is right now.
Detroit Rock City
One of the more interesting turns in Jake’s story is how it all started—obsessing over Guitar Hero III before ever picking up a real instrument. What sounds like a joke actually became the foundation, leading to drums, then guitar, and eventually songwriting. Pair that with growing up just across the border locked into Detroit rock radio—especially WRIF-FM—and you start to hear where the mix of melody and aggression comes from. It wasn’t a straight line, but it was consistent—and that’s what stuck.
Gone Gone Gone
That mindset carries straight into “Gone, Gone, Gone.” Jake breaks down how the song came together with Charlie Scene of Hollywood Undead, and why it stands out—not just as one of their heaviest tracks, but one that hits both sides of what they do. It’s immediate, but there’s depth underneath it. And more than anything, it sounds like a band that’s done experimenting and is now locked into who they are.
