In the spring of 1896, the Windisch-Muhlhauser Brewery hosted some of the most prominent Cincinnatians. Guests enjoyed an elegant meal with beer pairings in the unlikely ambiance of the brewery. Cincinnati's political and social elite enjoyed the experience so much that it became a regular occurrence, and the standard guest list called themselves members of the Beefsteak Club.

Butch Walker started out as a member of acclaimed band The Marvelous 3 and has since enjoyed equal success as both a solo artist and producer. In addition to five studio albums released since 2002, he was named Producer of the Year by Rolling Stone in 2005 and his songs have been hits for artists like Weezer, Pink, Katy Perry, Avril Lavigne, Panic! At the Disco and many others.
We've been playing Butch Walker & the Black Widows on WNKU since sometime last year and love what we've heard.
We also have our share of fans of the movie, "Dazed & Confused" here at WNKU, so when we saw this video we simply had to share it.
Legendary singer, songwriter and musician, Colin Hay, stopped by the studio for music and conversation. While here, he talked about the effect living in the United States has had on his music, and performed a great version of "Send Somebody" from his CD, Gathering Mercury.
