CURRENT EPISODE

Whether you’re a musician or a fan, a writer or an instrumentalist, MUSIC is our common denominator. On INTO THE MUSIC, darn near all we discuss is music. Join us for insightful discussions with interesting guests as we journey INTO THE MUSIC.
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 songs to date. Every song is performed by the trio of Michael on vocals and acoustic guitar, drummer Ric ”Spatula” Armstrong, and Rock Garden Studio producer Marc Golde on everything else. Now Michael has assembled The Ghosts of Electricity, his band that brings these gems to the stage and they more than do these songs justice. Enjoy this special interview that includes a segment recorded at the album release gig at Appleton's Gibson Community Music Hall.
Both songs on this show were contributed by and used with the permission of Michael Grabner.
”Wherever You Are” and ”Going Nowhere” written and performed by Michael Grabner
