Hello Everyone,

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

We continued our exploration of new local and regional recordings on this week's program, revisiting the mailboxes to discover new music! We debuted new songs from Black Cat Moan, Nag Champions Mystery Band, Olds and the Absolution, Coltt Winter Lepley, Reptilian Allegory, The Heathen Parade, We Came From Space, Small Town Titans and Heavy Chest. We also updated "Local Music News," dug a 1993 tune from Cambria County rockers Smokin' Guns from the archive for this week's "Local Music Flashback," and we reviewed X's For Eyes' Everything's Falling Apart album in "The Professor's CD Corner!"
