Ellefson Coffee Co previously released a blend called Roast In Peace. Ellefson says: "My love for coffee has accompanied me around the world for my entire musical career. Just like the spirit of a culture or the melody of a song, the enjoyment of coffee brings people together and creates harmony among us.
"The beans in this bag are traceable to their global origin and exemplify the spirit and culture of the people who grew them. It is my aim to bring this roast to our tables and awake our taste buds, fire up our rock n roll spirits and continue the global fellowship of music, art and coffee. May you roast in peace."

When asked what responsibilities he has as a musician, he tells Full Metal Jackie: "That's a question I ask myself often. You know, 'what is my responsibility, if any?'
"Sometimes I think as an artist - in arts in general - you're a reflection of society and the state of it. We are the voice of society in a way. You can go down the route of taking yourself way too seriously that way. Sometimes I think as an artist, it's important to at least be an articulate commentator on the events of today." Read more

Alongside Nashville-based Loving Mary, the rocker delivered Aerosmith's 1993 hit, "Cryin'", the title track to his solo record, and a cover of the 1967 Erma Franlin classic, "Piece Of My Heart", a tune also made famous by Janis Joplin.
Prior to the three-song set, Tyler joined host Matt Lauer to discuss the new project, which he co-produced with T Bone Burnett, Dann Huff, Jaren Johnston and Marti Frederikson.
Tyler will present the new music to fans during his first solo tour, "Out On A Limb", which starts in Las Vegas on July 2. Watch his Today show performances

The post-metal outfit reveal they'll perform their latest studio effort Mariner with singer Julie Christmas - who worked with them on the record - in a one-off performance at Leeds University Union.
Vocalist and guitarist Johannes Persson says: "The stars have aligned perfectly and I am going to have take back what I've repeated in numerous interviews this past year - that Mariner will not be played live, because it will. There are no plans to perform the album live in the UK again." Read more

And frontman James Hetfield and guitarist Kirk Hammett have both encouraged Trujillo's Jaco documentary. Trujillo tells Metallica's So What blog: "I remember James sent me an iPhone photo that a friend of his took who happened to be at the Sweetwater Cafe event we had done for Jaco in Mill Valley.
"And he said it was really cool, which made me feel good. Why? Because he said his friend was there, and he said it was awesome. Rather than saying, you know, 'What the f*** are you doing?'
"So that made me feel good, and the fact that Kirk actually came out and jammed with me that night. You know, it was really, really fun, and he helped me celebrate something that's important to me, so that was really, really cool and encouraging." Read more
