Following the release of his SURVIVORS GUILT mixtape in June, KennyHoopla has performed four tracks from the record live at the DTS Sound Space with drummer Travis Barker and guitarist Nick Long.

With the blink-182 legend and mixtape collaborator behind the kit, Kenny and Nick tear through estella, hollywood sucks, silence is also an answer and inside of heaven's mouth, there is a sweet tooth, before the trio sit down for a joint interview.

Speaking to Kerrang! about his creative partnership with Travis, Kenny revealed, "I can’t even make music with most people because I feel like I like weird them out. Things were just good with Travis, though. He actually told me that I’m way too hard on myself, and he could see how much pressure I’d put myself under and how hard I was trying to articulate my feelings.

"His advice to me when writing was simple: 'You only have one chance to say it, so just say it, because you could fucking die tomorrow.'"
