About The Artists	Concerts run "rain or shine"! We prefer to have everything outdoors, both for vibe and space, but if the weather doesn't cooperate, we'll move inside the store. What's on deck this year: ...It's our most ambitious season! Concerts begin JUNE 1 and run every Tuesday until AUGUST 10. Many favorites from prior seasons will return, including The Dave Sterner Quintet, Bill Ransom, The Sax Section, The N. Glenn Davis Quintet, and big band MOJO. The Opening Concert is a double bill Acoustic Guitar Night featuring local legend Brian Henke paired with 12-string wizard Neil Jacobs. Debuting on the Porch this year is acoustic guitar phenom Patrick Woods and jazz group Times Two. Opening acts for the 2010 season will begin at 7pm, with the headliners hitting around 7:30. If we don't program an opening act, the main concert will start at 7.	2009: MOJO tested the weight limits of the new stage... Season 8 will be here soon! Naming rights for the Front Porch Stage are again available, and WAY cheaper than those pricey stadiums. Bargain to be had, corporate America! You're welcome to add your tailgate expertise to the show. We'll even hold extra parking spaces for anyone who wants to come in with a smoker trailer and do barbecue! No Alcohol, Please. This is a family event, not Woodstock III. That means leave the Slip 'n' Slides and Frisbees at home, too. But bring chairs or use ours, relax in your car, and enjoy the evening! We'll again feature the work of local visual artists on the walk, plus kid activities and prize drawings. Try to be one of the first 100 people to arrive: you'll get a number, and we've got prizes, gift certificates, and other goodies that will go to numbers drawn between acts. That means you've got a 1-in-100 chance!

Front Porch Logowear!
We know that the Front Porch name isn't unique--in fact, you'll find references to music on the "Front Porch" everywhere, from coast to coast and across all styles.The idea conveys both a sense of community and casualness that we like. Here are performances that are intimate and relaxed, yet still professional and inspiring. We present these concerts to give everyone the opportunity to hear professionals up close, in the neighborhood, and FREE. Come out, bring a chair or use one of ours, and enjoy live music with our growing audience!
You Can Support The Porch !	Over the last eight years, no tax dollars, grants, or corporate checks have gone toward the Front Porch Concerts--every dollar has come from Skyline Music. We are committed to keeping these concerts free for the community, but in these economic times that is increasingly challenging. We pay the musicians who headline each concert, and the out-of-pocket expense each summer is seveal thousand dollars. If you'd like to support the effort with a contribution, you can do so via our PayPal account: skyline@skylinemusic.com.		To contribute, send an amount to the Skyline Music PayPal account email from your Paypal account. and identify it as "Front Porch".
We thank the companies and organizations at right: members of the music industry who believe in live music as we do and have provided prizes this season!
