Hello Everyone,
Here is the recap of the March 30 edition of Q94's weekly local music program, "The Backyard Rocker," which airs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 PM on WBXQ 94.3.
Thanks to our guests in the studio this week, Indiana County-based power trio Dollarz-n-Sense (www.myspace.com/dollarznsense) for an insightful and hard-rocking two hours! We met the band members and learned their story to date, and heard their thoughts on their music as we played songs from their 2006 CD Destination: U$ and their recently-issued EP Unsung Hero. We also debuted new songs from Vs. the Earth, Gasoline Dion, Dubmissive and Fixer; we updated Local Music News, and reviewed Rockabilly Junction’s Don’t Let It Fool You… CD in “The Professor’s CD Corner.” (The review can be read in the “Backyard Rocker” section of the message board area on Q94’s website, www.wbxq.com.)
Here is this week’s playlist:
HOUR ONE:
VS. THE EARTH – “Who He’ll Be Tonight”
LIES, INC. – “Plaster Apparent”

Next Sunday night, our guests in the studio will be Shippensburg-based rockers Ledbetter Heights. We’ll get reacquainted with the band members, find out their latest happenings, and hear tunes from their newly-released second CD, Evolve. We’ll also hear tunes from other area bands and artists, and review Evelyn’s Ashes’ CD Far Away in “The Professor’s CD Corner!” Ledbetter Heights returns to the “Backyard Rocker,” next Sunday night!
