Hello Everyone,
Here is the recap of the September 23 edition of 105.9 Qwik-Rock's weekly local music program, "The Homegrown Rocker," which airs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 PM on Lion Country's Rock Station, 105.9 Qwik-Rock. The show can also be streamed via Qwik's website, www.1059qwikrock.com.
This week, we caught up with band guests, as we spoke with the members of Altoona-based rock group On The Brink under a tent in the rain during the Route 22 Rock & Blues Festival near Huntingdon! We met the band members and learned their story, and played tunes from their self-titled CD! Since the group features Flame Sky alumni Ed Brinkel and Nate Woods, we dug a 2004 number by The Flame Sky from the archive for a "Local Music Flashback." We also debuted a new song from Willow Hill, updated "Local Music News," stepped "Across State Lines" to hear music from former area musician Aeb Byrne (now based in Los Angeles), and reviewed The Chrome Hearts' Oh No CD in "The Professor's CD Corner!"
Here is this week's playlist:
HOUR ONE:
CHRIS RATTIE & THE NEW REBELS - "My Mountain"
TIM WOODS - "Everyday"
ON THE BRINK - "Frank"
MAMA CORN - "Goodbye Comfort Home"
ON THE BRINK - "The Soldier"
WILLOW HILL - "Don't Threaten Me with a Good Time"
ON THE BRINK - "Get It Right"

HOUR TWO:

THE ROOF - "Kindled"
ON THE BRINK - "Manic"
THE CHROME HEARTS - "Lookin' at My Boots"

ZACH WADE & THE GOOD GRIEF - "Something Happened"
We'll have a guest on our next program, as we speak via phone with Gordon Tittsworth, the lead singer and rhythm guitarist for Pavement Entertainment recording group Images Of Eden! Gordon will update us on the latest Images Of Eden happenings, and we will hear tracks from the group's brand new album, Soulrise! Along the way, we will update "Local Music News," dig a "Local Music Flashback" from the archive, and review Hate Grenade's The King Is Dead CD in "The Professor's CD Corner!"
