Eau Claire music hits the air waves this summer on WPR. The popular afternoon talk show Central Time is hosting Set List, a summer music series set to air through early September. Set List will bring featured Wisconsin musicians into the WPR studios to perform their music and talk to the hosts of Central Time. The series is produced by Karl Christenson and Brad Kolberg, both of whom are veterans of the Eau Claire music scene and can claim UW-Eau Claire as their alma mater.

The hosts of Central Time seek to use Set List to bring emerging Wisconsin musical talent to an audience eager to hear it, and to foster use their interviews with the musicians to foster a connection between artists and listeners. “Central Time is excited to host Set List. It's part of the show's mission to explore the rich culture of Wisconsin and discover new things that enrich the lives of our listeners, ” said Central Time Executive Producer, Sheryl Gasser.

Set List will show Eau Claire some summer love with performances by Aero Flynn, Field Report, and J.E. Sunde. Tune in on Fridays to hear your favorite Sconnie sounds or discover something new.
