Halfway House Music Podcast 2: Electric Boogaloo



Halfway House, a music blog that understands the opportunity our city has lying between two major cities, Detroit and Chicago. Catching bands on the road and bringing in Grand Rapids native talent to Stone House Recording for professionally produced audio/visual media they share for free on their website.

Another example of why I believe we can always look to music for the next step in a progressively creative economy.  Halfway House seems to understand not only the importance of raising up local talent in a professional context to get an equal chance against more conglomerate sources, but also to create that context where local musicians are sharing a platform in a larger dialogue of the artform and surrounding culture, geography aside.

This being a subject I could quickly exhaust your interest in, I'll leave it there and you can get back to Facebook and that (3) on the tab.  Just leave the podcast playing while you do.
