    MICHAEL GRABNER is back with a brand new album and the Ghosts of Electricity

    Text us about this show. In just a short five year span, Michael Grabner has become one of Wisconsin's most prolific singer-songwriters. From his first album, Restart (2021), to his solo acoustic sophomore effort, A Story I Can't Tell (2023), through the nine singles he's dropped since, Michael's growth and maturity as a songwriter is all on display. Those nine singles are combined with three new tracks for a new album called The Rock Garden Recordings and it's Michael's best collection of songs to date. Every song is performed by the trio of Michael on vocals and acoustic guitar, drummer Ric "Spatula" Armstrong, and Rock Garden Studio producer Marc Golde on everything else. Now Michael has assembled The Ghosts of Electricity, his band that brings these gems to the stage and they more than do these songs justice. Enjoy this special interview that includes a segment recorded at the album release gig at Appleton's Gibson Community Music Hall. Both songs on this show were contributed by and used with the permission of Michael Grabner. "Wherever You Are" and "Going Nowhere" written and performed by Michael Grabner ℗ 2026 Michael Grabner.

    BECCA MURRAY: Killer sounds from indie pop to classic rock

    Text us about this show. Becca Murray just doesn't have a good appreciation of the music she plays—she understands it. After stints in synth-pop band Ultra Key and rockin' out with 90-Proof, she's gone solo (well, in a manner of speaking) with her first EP. Skating By contains six well crafted original indie pop songs that display writing and playing chops that most first efforts lack. Becca writes from her own point of view as a woman in her upper twenties, but her lyrics will connect with a broad variety of listeners from all walks of life. The music is well done filled with hooks and melodies that are memorable. And live? Becca brings the goods to every performance whether that be with her band, The Wildflowers, or fronting the classic rock cover band Atomic Blonde. Writer, vocalist, guitarist... Becca is an artist to pay attention to. BONUS! This show contains a special exclusive performance by Becca of her song, "Lost." All songs are used with permission of Becca Murray. "Fly Trap" written and performed by Becca Murray ℗ 2025 Studio 717. "I Got you In My Head" performed by 90-Proof written by Spencer Waldron ℗ 2024 Higher Society. "Lost (solo acoustic—exclusive to Into The Music)" written and performed by Becca Murray This recording ℗ 2026 Studio 717. Melody Audiology LLCAudiology services for all.

Austin Skalecki is a wanderer, a free spirit, and one who knows how to take life experiences and encounters and turn them into songs that bring the listener into those scenarios.

    GALE BIRD: A trio reshaping alternative country

    Text us about this show. Gale Bird is the trio of husband and wife Joshua and Melissa Gale and friend Sean Monahan. Hailing from Charleston, SC, they combine lots of stacked vocal harmonies and southern grit with a lot of heart in their uplifting original songs. Their influences are quite varied and include the Eagles, Led Zeppelin, Rascal Flatts, Need To Breathe, Coldplay, and Alan Jackson. Along with those there are shades of jazz, soul, and straight up rock and roll in their music. They say they're "reshaping alternative country" and when you listen to their originals, you know they're only getting started. For Gale Bird, it's faith and being honest about their convictions that has them soaring in the Charleston music scene. All songs provided by Gale Bird and are used with their permission.
