UWM’s Peck School of the Arts, along with with 91.7 WMSE, Transfer Pizzeria & Cafe and VIA Downer, is introducing a new, free concert series: MKE Unplugged, featuring intimate and stripped down performances from local and national acts at the Helene Zelazo Center for the Performing Arts. The series is part of the Peck School’s Year of the Arts, and it begins next Thursday, Sept. 20. TCD takes a look at the artists featured in the series.
Trapper Schoepp & the Shades: 2012 was a pretty big year for The Shades, finding them playing high profile gigs with Soul Asylum and signing with influential LA record label SideOneDummy. Their new full length Run, Engine, Run will be re-released on Sept. 25, and Schoepp will be performing songs from it on Sept. 20, with special guest Macyn Taylor. (Reader’s note: Yes, I used to drum for these guys (hey dudes!)).
