In this epic on-location episode of The Anthony Rogers Show, host Anthony Rogers sits down with Eicca Toppinen — founding cellist, composer, and creative force behind the legendary symphonic metal titans Apocalyptica — at the Daytona International Speedway during Welcome to Rockville 2026.
Fresh off their high-energy set of Metallica covers and originals that had the massive crowd roaring, Eicca dives into the band’s unique cello-driven sound, their evolution from Metallica tribute roots to global metal innovators, the raw power of live festival performances, and what it’s like bringing classical precision to the chaos of rock ‘n’ roll. No scripts — just real talk in the heart of one of the biggest rock festivals in the world.
