The Front Porch feat. Kayanna Ottaway aka Annie . Hey that's Me. I play a variety of genres but mostly Women Of Coutry, Folk and Americana. I am also part of the Conneaut Creek String Band. I have been playing since I won my first guitar which is signed by Leann Rimes ( Who I grew up with her, so pretty awesome) from GAC Superfan contest I have been blessed to make some really neat friends along my musical journey. I started out at Beth Edward Gospel Jam, connected Mary Lou Karr' who helped me grow so much and helped me be able to play out in font of people. She gave me opportunities to play and will always be grateful. Marylou took me to song circle at The Musical Petting Zoo here in Corry PA where I played and became friends with so many local musicans. I met the Front Porch Rockers there and just love them so much. I have been playing at local open mics, song groups, festivals and Coffee Houses. I look forward to my new journey as a band member with CCSB and also as a dj and Producer here at WWCB. I cannot wait till all this COVId and Unrest settles down enough for us to be out jammin together again. By the way this was the first time I ever played on radio, which was so neat and If you want to give it a try, Come On Over to THE Front Porch

The :Corry area has a rich history of local musicians.  In the past a group called The Villagers played for many square dances.  Most of the group lived towards Warren. The program presented today is a group of old friends talking about their music and times gone by.  The music you will hear is taken from their tapes - yes, pre CD recordings.  We are blessed today with Ted Marshall, Steve Sutton,  Bert Whitley,  Ed Hanson and Kathy Kosko.

One of the new comers to the music scene in the Corry area, but not new to playing music is our guest, Dave Schaffer.  Dave, known to most as "dobro Dave" has enriched us not only with his songs, but with his wit.  A jazz guitarist, Dave plays several other instruments very well, including his newist love of the fiddle.  Welcome Dave.

We invited our friend, Maia Chisholm, to come and share her love of the folk harp.  Maia has recently gained hospice certification as music therapist and plays during vigils at the end of a person's life.  Maia also plays the recorder, upright bass and most recently a cigar-box electric bass.  Today's program features some celtic music.

After serving in the Navy, Ed began playing music and worked gigs all over the Western New York area. Ed says, "writing songs just seemed to be the next natural step." We welcomed Ed to our program several times.

The First Ever recording of The Front Porch Show- 03-27-2018 This was our debut Show in March 2018 featuring the always strong, feisty, talented joy-filled Front Porch Rockers made up of Rosemarie Hill, Connie Knapp and Margaret Alsdorf.
