Hello Everyone,
Here is the recap of the March 25 edition of Q94's weekly local music program, "The Backyard Rocker," which airs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 PM on WBRX 94.3 and WBXQ 94.7.
We always appreciate any guests who log some mileage to be on the program; so big thanks to our guest this week, Beaver Springs-based singer, songwriter and guitarist Hannah Bingman (www.hannahbingman.com) for making the two hour journey to be on the program. (Hannah will be off to Wisconsin for some shows shortly, so two hours to Altoona will look like a drive to the end of the block in comparison!) We learned about Hannah and her career to date, and played songs from both of her albums, Truckload of Philosophers and Right, Right Now. Two lucky listeners called in to win copies of both albums! Hannah also brought her acoustic guitar along and played some songs live on the air, including two songs not on either of her albums! We also debuted a new song from Bushmaster; and also reviewed the brand new Sherri Mullen CD, Fearless, in “The Professor’s CD Corner.” (The review can be viewed in the “Backyard Rocker” section of the Message Board area on Q94’s website, www.wbxq.com.)
Here is this week’s playlist:
