Back in October, our friends in Digital Summer released an acoustic disc called "After Hours: Unplugged and Rewired". Since the release, the album has received much critical acclaim, and has been nominated for multiple awards.
The band has just released a video for the song "This City" from the album, and if you had any hope that the song referred to guitarist Jon Stephenson's

I was just going about my show like normal tonight, when I randomly get a text from Digital Summer's Jon Stephenson. "Hey, what are you doing?" "I'm doing my radio show. What you doing?"
About 5 minutes later I hear a knocking at my window and damn if it isn't Digital Summer!
By now, if you spend any time at all listening to 99X, you're familiar with the band Digital Summer and their songs "Forget You" and "Just Run". You're probably even more familiar with Digital Summer's guitarist Jon Stephenson. Jon is a Shreveport native that honed his chops with local band (Lafayette/Shreveport) Karma Protocol...
