Another song from the Chicago post-punk soul band's High Fidelity Music Series show. This week we bring you a track from the just-released album, Howl- "Before You Die."

The Chicago post-punk soul band performed in WBEZ's High Fidelity Music Series in December. Though they made their name covering Wilco's "I Am Trying To Break Your Heart," the group is really at its best in party mode.

The legendary British troubadour was on WBEZ's Afternoon Shift recently and appropriately performed "Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key" from his collaboration with Wilco, Mermaid Avenue.

When you have Mucca Pazza performing, it's a special occasion. When the sprawling marching band performed on The Morning Shift, we asked them to stick around and play a song in our public studio for the denizens of Navy Pier.

Philly's favorite son wears his psychedelic troubadour hat for this solo performance of the song "Never Run Away" from his new album, Wakin On A Pretty Daze, on this week's Sound Opinions.

The Decemberists' side project perform their song Do You Believe? for the first time in concert. It was part of "The Storm In The Barn," a project commissioned by the Oregon Children's Theater.

Jacco Gardner performed yesterday on the Morning Shift. Here’s the baroque pop by way of the Netherlands on “Clear The Air.”

Portland's Black Prairie performed in our studios a few months ago for our High Fidelity members. This song came midway in the set and features beautiful harmony vocals and a nice use of the zither.

This week on the podcast we bring you another song from our Black Prairie concert. This time the rootsy, homespun side project of The Decemberists perform their original tune, "Rock of Ages."

Members of Black Prairie may be more well-known for their work with other projects (The Decemberist, Portlandia), but they certainly seem most comfortable playing the rootsy, homespun tunes of their side project.
