Topic: Greg Koch. Willy Porter, Peter Mulvey... July 15th, Milwaukee

I know that a lot of Joe B fans are also big fans of some of these awesome Milwaukee guitar players. There is a  concert on July 15th at Cream City Music in Brookfield, which is a benefit for Milwaukee bass player Jim Kishline, who was recently injured in a serious accident. For $20, you can support the Kishline family and enjoy a whole day of awesome music. The band lineup so far is:

1:00  Paul Cebar
1:35  Matt Hendricks (a great young blues guy if you've never seen him)
2:00  Robin Pluer
2:35  Tom Schack
3:00  Willy Porter
3:35  Bill Camplin     
4:00  Chuck Hedges
4:35  Ellen Winters
5:00  John Sieger and the SubContinentals
5:35  The Lackloves
6:00  Peter Mulvey
6:35  Sam Stefke
7:00  Greg Koch
7:45  The ByStanders with Joe Gorman
8:20  Peter Mac

I hope I'm not violating any forum rules by posting this event here, but since it is a benefit concert I figured it would be OK. Please see www.creamcitymusic.com or www.jamforsam.com for more details on Jim Kishline or the concert.

Hey Sarah:

I would like to give a shout out for Willy Porter.

A great storyteller, and an amazing guitar player. His vocals are smooth as honey. He is like Joe, in that he really shines in front of an audience, and interacts with them the entire evening.

Check out his website www.willyporter.com for some samples. Take a listen to "Loose Gravel" for a sample from his current CD, Available Light. I also recommend "Falling Forward" as a great background to mellow out at the end of the day with the one you love.

I'll have to agree, Willy is one of my favorites too. He seems to be really popular out there in the Northwest -- we are lucky to have him here in town.
