Announcing "Radio Summer Camp"
We here at WMSE 91.7FM are super excited to announce Radio Summer Camp – a four-day music festival and symposium taking place at venues throughout Milwaukee from Thursday, August 20th through Monday, August 24th.
We will be slowly unveiling the full club line-up in the coming weeks, but today we are proud to unveil the artists playing the featured event of Radio Summer Camp, The Backyard BBQ. The BBQ will be held at Cathedral Square park from 11AM – 9PM on Saturday, August 22nd, mixing some of Milwaukee’s best with great national touring acts.
11 – 11:45am Cedarwell
12: – 12:45pm Alex Wilson Band
1:15 – 2:05pm The Championship

5:30 – 6:30pm Justin Townes Earle
7:00 – 8:30pm Paul Cebar Tomorrow Sound
As you all can probably tell, the BBQ has a kind of straw hats and lemonade, country, blues and bluegrass kind of feel. And we’re really excited to have Milwaukee legend (and WMSE DJ) Paul Cebar as the headliner for the event.
Stay tuned to our new blog - On the Frontier - for continuing updates.
