Hello Everyone,
Here is the recap of the July 20 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.
With no guests in the studio this week, we again took the opportunity to get caught up on new local and regional recordings that have arrived at “Backyard Rocker” headquarters in recent weeks. We also featured a number of bands and performers involved in last weekend’s annual Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts in State College. We debuted new tunes from Noah & the Rescue Radio, Ted McCloskey, The Big Dirty, South Saturn Delta, Appalachian Invasion, Don Hughes, Mojo Nation, Chris Bell & 100% Blues, El Broosha and Anthony Stauffer & Holy Smoke. We also updated Local Music News, flashed back to 1995 to check out a song from Brandy Lies (two of their former members are now in the band Lareau, who performed last weekend at the Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts), and we reviewed Larry Nath’s Live It! 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.)
