Hello Everyone,
Here is the recap of the October 2 edition of 105.9 Qwik-Rock's weekly local music program, "The Homegrown Rocker," which airs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 PM on Lion Country's Rock Station, 105.9 Qwik-Rock. The show can also be streamed via Qwik's website, www.1059qwikrock.com.
New recordings were again the focus of this week's show, as we emptied the program's mailboxes to bring you a wide variety of new local and regional tunes! We debuted songs from Blossom Hollow, Beauty Slap, Steve Treado, Sherri Mullen, Nobody's Heroes, Jim Logrando & Sean Spollen, Nathan Peterson, Psycho Prophecy and Horehound! We also dug a 1995 number from northeastern PA rockers Teacher's Pet from the archive for this week's "Local Music Flashback," and stepped "Across State Lines" to hear a song by North Carolina's Randy McQuay.
