Hello Everyone,

Here is the recap of the March 17 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.

Since St. Patrick's Day 2019 fell on a Sunday this year, it was only logical that this week's edition of the "Homegrown Rocker" would be the annual St. Paddy's Day Special! We allowed the local and regional music scene get its Irish up during this week's show, as we showcased bands and songs with a wee bit of Irish in their sound and presentation! Along the way, we updated "Local Music News," saluted the late Dan Myers Sr. and the Irish Ramblers with a live 2004 number for our "Local Music Flashback," and stepped "Across State Lines" to hear a song from Chicago-based Irish punk rockers The Tossers!

Here is this week's playlist:

HOUR ONE:

LUCKY LAD GREEN - "Irish Pride"
LUCKY LAD GREEN - "Bar Fight"
DEAD IRISH BLUES - "The Derelict Yo-Ho-Ho and a Bottle of Rum"
THE ARTS - "Celtic Tale"
BASTARD BEARDED IRISHMEN - "Paddy O'Shea"
BASTARD BEARDED IRISHMEN - "Whiskey, Rum, Bourbon, Beer"
FULL KILT - "Wild Night"
FULL KILT - "Come Have a Drink with the Band"
TREE - "Drunken Sailor"
TREE - "Wild Rover"
BARLEYJUICE - "St. Patrick's Day"
BARLEYJUICE - "Sweet Young Thing"

HOUR TWO:

WINE OF NAILS - "The Blight of the Emerald Isle"
TUKURPA - "Leprechaun"
JACK SERVELLO & BILL DANN - "Corned Beef, Cabbage and You"
JACK SERVELLO & BILL DANN - "Lucky Charms of Love"
GERRY BURSKEY - "Liver Fulla Liquor"
THE IRISH RATTLERS - "Dear Boss" (live) (2004, Local Music Flashback)
THE TOSSERS - "No Loot, No Booze, No Fun" (Across State Lines)
CEANN - "Pittsburgh Makes Me Drunk"
KILMAINE SAINTS - "Amazing Grace/The Saints Are Up"
KILMAINE SAINTS - "Gold and Guns"
THE CLOVER - "Kiss Me I'm Irish Today"
LADY - "Morrigan"
MICHAEL O'BRIAN BAND - "Whiskey in the Jar" (live)
MICHAEL O'BRIAN BAND - "Unicorn Song" (live)

During our recent stretch of guests and specials on the program, a number of new recordings have accumulated in the "Homegrown Rocker" mailboxes - so we will be digging into the mailboxes on our next two programs to get caught up! We'll be debuting lots of new songs on our next program, and guarantee maximum local and regional music! We'll also update "Local Music News," dig a song by a past area band or artist from the archive for a "Local Music Flashback," and again step "Across State Lines" to hear music from an independent band or artist from outside of PA! Listen to the "Homegrown Rocker," Sunday night (March 24) at 8 p.m. on 105.9 Qwik-Rock on your FM radio dial, or stream it live online at www.1059qwikrock.com!

Upcoming guests and specials include:

MAR. 17 - ST. PADDY'S DAY SPECIAL
APR. 7 - THE SNIPPED
APRIL 14 - CHELSEA TAKAMI (MMC Dropbox winner/download card)
APR. 21 - UNPLUGGED NIGHT
MAY 5 - JOHN VENTO
MAY 19 - IRON WOLF

(All dates are subject to changes as circumstances warrant.)

Bands and artists wanting to submit news items for "Local Music News" may email their news to homegrownrocker@gmail.com. Indicate "MUSIC NEWS" in the subject heading!

Bands and artists interested in having music aired on the show are invited to send their broadcast-quality recordings to: Magnum Broadcasting, 315 South Atherton Street, State College, PA 16801; ATTN: Jim Price/Homegrown. Or drop the recordings off at the station during regular business hours, Monday-Friday 9 AM to 5 PM. You can also email digital song files or inquiries about the show to homegrownrocker@gmail.com.
