Radio Milwaukee presents a special Studio Milwaukee Session during our Fall Membership Drive featuring Milwaukee native Buffalo Nichols! On his second album, “The Fatalist,” Nichols does things with blues that might catch you off guard. There’s 808 programming, chopped up Charley Patton samples, washes of synth. There’s a consideration of the fullness of the sonic stage and the atmospherics of the music that can only come with a long engagement with electronic music. But this is no gimmicky hybrid or attempt to turn blues into 21st century music by simply dressing it with skittering hi-hats. Catch Buffalo Nichols in Milwaukee before his show on Oct. 5 at Madison’s High Noon Saloon! This Session is FREE and open to the public on a first come, first served basis (max. 200 capacity). Enjoy a pop-up café hosted by Discourse Coffee before, during and after the Session. Don’t forget to contribute to our membership drive while you’re here! Can’t make it? Listen live on 88Nine, here on radiomilwaukee.org, or the Radio Milwaukee app.
