Tonight On Local/Live: On the Porch
POSTED:: December 1, 2009
FILED UNDER:: In-Studio Performances, Local/Live
Inspirations of Dylan, Tweedy, Young and Springsteen — some of music’s most notable heavyhitters — come to life in Milwaukee-based trio On the Porch. Scott Hanson, Chris Bausch and Michael Hieb have been creating their folk-rock compositions together for a couple years, but have recently started playing out, joining forces with artists such Heligoats and Bryan Cherry. Hanson, with the aid of an acoustic guitar, harmonica and straightforward vocals creates a classically stripped-down Americana sound. On the band’s song “Labor Day”, Hanson name-drops local bandThe Championship, tipping his hat to another comrade in Milwaukee folk-rock.
Tune in tonight to listen to On the Porch live on 91.7 FM, WMSE at 8 p.m. for WMSE’s weekly Local/Live segment. Hear some tunes from the band and news and updates — the band is set to play a show at Starship along with Wolves Cry Wolf on Friday, December 4th.
