Hello Everyone,

Here is the recap of the March 20 edition of "The Homegrown Rocker," which airs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 PM on Q94 Classic Rock!

Thanks to our guests via phone this week, Chris and Alex of Toledo, Ohio-based groove rockers Jo Jo Stella (http://www.jojostella.com)! We learned about the band and its story, discussed Jo Jo Stella's music and upcoming area shows, plus played their recorded studio and live songs (plus one from their side project, Heavy Spirits). We also aired a portion of an interview from our sister station, TalkRadio 98.5 and 1240 WRTA, as Doug Herendeen spoke with ArtsAltoona's Harald Dertinger about the upcoming area appearance of railroad song enthusiasts Artese & Toad at the ArtsAltoona Center on Saturday, March 26. In addition, we updated "Local Music News," dug a 2000 number from Dusk Til Dawn from the archive for a "Local Music Flashback," and reviewed former area musician David J. Shaffer's Americana Divide album in "The Professor's CD Corner!" (For those who missed the program, a four-part podcast of this show is available for listening or download from Q94's website, www.q94classicrock.com.
