Pioneer 90.1 presents Little Bobby & the Storm March 6.

Little Bobby & the Storm

Pioneer 90.1 presents a free concert by Thief River Falls-based blues performers Little Bobby & the Storm, Saturday March 6 at the Northland College TRF Theater at 7PM.

The show is the latest in a series of live performances highlighting Minnesota musicians that will be recorded and shared with public radio stations in our statewide network.

Along with the live performance, the radio broadcast will feature Bobby’s stories of playing last summer at actor Morgan Freeman’s blues club in Clarksdale, Mississippi.

Little Bobby & the Storm have released a concert DVD recorded last spring at the Empire Arts Center in Grand Forks, ND.

The March 6 show will be a trial run for our new TriCaster portable video switcher. The TriCaster lets us cover music and arts events on location with inputs for four live cameras. We can add graphics and transitions, and instantly encode the output for web streaming.

Networks such as FOX, ESPN, MTV, and the NHL use the Tricaster for portable live web video production.

Pioneer 90.1 Operations Manager Ben Kosharek and I are looking forward to bringing more diverse, original Minnesota music to Northland in the months ahead. Check back for a list of upcoming performers.

See you at the show!
