A live radio broadcast featuring music, spoken word and comedy with the emphasis on music!

Host Dan Plaster offers a slice of Americana in the form of an old style radio show, Live on KLCC!  The Front Porch Revue is an extension of the Sunday afternoon program Front Porch and is broadcast monthly 3:30-5:00 p.m.  The Front Porch Revue showcases local and regional talent, bringing together the past and present in a celebration of Americana!

Anchoring the program is the Porch Band.  Dan Bilderback and Rich Spence have been musical partners for over 10 years and form the core of the Porch Band.  Dan and Rich sing beautiful harmonies and are both multi-instrumentalists with a huge repertoire of songs.  Dan is a versatile guitarist and an accomplished arranger with years of experience producing live and recorded music.  Rich is a hot mandolinist, a wonderful songwiter, and a fixture of the Eugene Folk Music scene.  Bassist Scoop McGuire has recently joined Dan and Rich and become an integral part of the Porch Band's sound.  Scoop is a professional musician with many years of experience as a session player and is a former member of Roy Roger's Delta Rhythm Kings.

With an ensemble cast featuring Virginia Cohen, Corrina Bilderback, Jon Neher, Jeff Alberts and Linda Danielson along with the help of special guests, the Porch Band will take us on a tour through the American  Songbook, past to present, with a Northwest regional twist!

Comedy skits and stories add to the variety and expand our exploration of American music, history and culture.  Join us LIVE from KLCC's SELCO Performance Hall, Sundays 3:30-5:00 p.m.
