Text us about this show. Local 5 Live is a show that airs weekday mornings at 9:00 AM CT on WFRV-TV in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Millaine Wells and Lisa Malak are the hosts and these ladies love music. One of the great weekly features of Local 5 Live is bringing in a band or artists from the local music scene to perform live and share their stories. This has given those artists a good amount of exposure and it's brought more viewers to Local 5 Live. If one thing can be said of the NE Wisconsin mu...
Text us about this show. Dan Hubbard is a middle American singer-songwriter with soul. His influences are all right there in his original songs, there's no hiding them. It's what he does with them that makes Dan's music unique and a great anytime listen. Imagine taking Paul Simon's singer-songwriter chops and combining them with Tom Petty's rock & roll, Van Morrison's soul, and Al Green's rhythm & blues and you have some great original music coming right out of America's heartland. On...
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 so...
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...
Text us about this show. There are some bands that come along and you can't help get excited about them. Grackles from Austin, TX is one of those bands. When their music is described as “dark blues rhumba with country ballads” and “singer-songwriter aesthetics meet blazing guitar solos and danceable 12 bar tunes,” you know this is a band you should pay close attention to. Frontman Noah Lit is on hand this episode to tell us all about Grackles, how they get their rootsy, organic sound, and how...
Text us about this show. 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. He calls the Door County peninsula of Wisconsin home, but he's journeyed all over and his travels have provided him with inspiration for lyrics that are vivid word pictures set to music that are easy to get lost in. Sit back and take a listen to Austin's story and music. You might just find y...
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 sa...
Text us about this show. The Midwest Country Music Organization was founded in 2017 by Paul "PT" Thomas as a way for independent country artists to connect and expand their networks in order to more effectively promote themselves and their music. Eric Salisbury joined the Midwest CMO team a few years later and he's focused on growing membership throughout the Midwest and beyond. Both Paul and Eric are on hand to kick off season five of Into The Music to discuss how the Midwest CMO helps artis...

Text us about this show. Marc Bonilla has enjoyed one of the most comprehensive careers any musician could wish for. And after close to four decades in the business there is simply no quit in him. He is a world class guitarist, an accomplished teacher of music, a remarkable composer, and simply an appreciator of beauty in art and life. And he's a proud nerd with a deep love of things like superheroes and Star Trek. He allows what has been to inform the possibilities of what can be all the whi...
Text us about this show. Kela Sako is a vocalist out of the San Diego scene and she's a name you need to keep an eye on. She's on an upward trajectory and already making herself known by releasing her debut EP, being nominated for the San Diego Music Awards' Vocalist of the Year, recording a double A-sided single with The Tourmaliners, and now garnering her first production credit for Sun Sets, Vol. 1: An Acoustic Session, a new album she recorded in collaboration with Sandollar. Her original...
Text us about this show. Anthony Nix is not a country musician. He's a country artist. He works his craft and shares his heart through the majority of his songs. He works hard to deliver original and honest performances both in the studio and on stage. He's diligent at what he does because he knows it doesn't just mean something to him, but to his fans. He's uncompromising about laying out who he is as a musician and as a person. Although he spends time in and around Nashville, he's proud to ...
Text us about this show. Even though Kathy Mancl has been in music for decades, she, in a number of ways, is just getting started. In 2024 she released her debut album, Red Hot Lover, from which two of the tracks won WAMI Awards and in recent years joined two of Wisconsin's biggest bands, Vic Ferrari and STEEM. From starting out in a working country band at the age of ten up to now, there has been no stopping her. As for her recordings, she pulls in some of Wisconsin's top talent to write wit...
Text us about this show. To say Miles Nielsen has seen and experienced a lot over his three decade career in music would be an understatement. Let's cut to the chase... when your dad is Rick Nielsen, guitarist for Cheap Trick, you get inspired to follow in his footsteps but you do it your way. Miles has done just that. Over his three decade career he not only has grown as a music maker, but as a devoted husband, father, and friend. He's gone through the heartache of losing one of his closest ...
Text us about this show. A year ago I had Dr. Hannah Formella Zdroik of Melody Audiology LLC on the show to discuss hearing protection and preservation for musicians, music professionals, and fans alike. She returns on this episode to discuss the latest technology and strategies for helping those with hearing issues. She also gives us a glimpse into her own music theater endeavors that are helping to bridge audiology and performance. Protecting our hearing is crucial and one of the most impor...
Text us about this show. There are singer-songwriters and then there is Mathew Haeffel. It is truly hard to pin the singer-songwriter label on him because his original compositions go well beyond what you'd expect from an artist in that genre. Mathew is a songsmith who creates music in a way that a visual artist might create a striking painting. He specializes in juxtaposition, combining dark and light elements that contrast each other whether that be in his lyrics, instrumentation, or both. ...
Text us about this show. Patrick Zyduck, also known as Elysian Stew, is a finger style guitarist who writes in the moment. The bulk of his originals are instrumentals that paint soundscapes that draw in and envelop the listener with rich acoustic textures and moods. His inspirations for writing range from a rain storm to owls to backpacking on Mount Rainier. On top of that, he is an avid cyclist and knows firsthand how physical activity and musicianship work with each other to improve one's p...
Text us about this show. To say that The Mascot Theory created their new album, Cosmic Hit and Run, under pressure would be an understatement. They set out to create a concept album about helplessness, loss, grief, healing, and hope and in the process they lived it all. The finished product is nothing short of brilliant. Although each song can stand on its own, within the narrative of Cosmic Hit and Run they make for an incredible listen from beginning to end both musically and lyrically. Tak...
Text us about this show. It's pretty clear when you listen to Tim Case's music that his Wisconsin roots go deep into his soul. Many of his songs have at least references to people or places around the state, but they serve as devices to tell a narrative rather than promote Wisconsin outright. It's just what he knows through his life experiences and observations, so he weaves these elements into his thoughtful lyrics. His 2025 release, Hall of Mirrors, is an album that is influenced by artists...
