Hello Everyone,
Here is the recap of the December 13 edition of "The Homegrown Rocker," which airs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 PM on Q94 Classic Rock!
For the final time this year, we revisited the mailboxes to catch up on new local and regional recordings that have arrived in recent days! As a result, we debuted lots of new music from the area music scene! We introduced new tunes from the Jeremy Edge Project, We Came From Space, Ted McCloskey, the trio of Bill Dann, Jay Zimmerman and Jack Servello, Brother Jack, The Great Enough, Post Traumatik, Chip & the Charge Ups and Skies of Terra! We also updated "Local Music News," dug a 1999 song by Pittsburgh's Felony in Progress from the archive for this week's "Local Music Flashback," stepped "Across State Lines" to check out a song from Houston, Texas-based electronica duo The Radio Broadcast, and reviewed Jonah Whale's VI album in "The Professor's CD Corner!"
