LIVE FROM THE DIVIDE is a radio broadcast created simply as a "A Celebration of the American Songwriter". The 60 minute show features regionally established & legendary songwriters alike. Based out of an intimate 50 person venue and recording facility in Bozeman, Montana.
Artists vary their interactions with the crowd, sometimes poking fun at a live audience member or by taking time to explain the origin of the song they are about to perform. The program provides listeners with an unparalleled opportunity to hear songwriters in a natural stripped down and raw setting.
Screen Door Porch delivers a Wyoming-grown fusion of soulful Americana, Roots-Rock and Country-Blues akin to “Stevie Nicks meets The Band, with Ryan Adams and Bonnie Raitt hanging out backstage” Grooving, electrified porch music, that is. The core female/male singer-songwriter pair of Seadar Rose & Aaron Davis thrive in a space that houses rustic harmonies and “a sort of Lennon/McCartney arrangement and get it right every time” (Americana UK). Screen Door Porch was featured in The New York Times for their “entrepreneurial gumption” in founding the multi-act WYOmericana Caravan Tour, while Paste Magazine recently called the band “an impressive musical discovery." Part of Screen Door Porch’s MO has always been a breadth of acoustic and electric instrumentation for just four people—acoustic/electric/slide guitars, banjo, mandolin, harmonica, and kazoogle reinforced by the emphatic rhythm section of fretless bassist Tom Davidson and drummer/harmony vocalist Andy Peterson. This dynamic range allows for a high- energy swagger of gritty, slide-induced blues-rock to sultry indie-folk and pensive alt-country. Evidenced on the band’s third full-length studio album, Modern Settler (2015), there have been plenty of colorful characters in ole Wyoming, shaped by a landscape that inspires and humbles. The first two Screen Door Porch LPs—Screen Door Porch (2010) and The Fate & The Fruit (2012)—were internationally recognized in eight “Best Albums of the Year” lists while hovering in the Top 25 of the Euro-Americana Chart and Top 30 of the Roots Music Report Roots-Rock Chart in the U.S. In past few years, the band has been fortunate to embrace the regional festival scene (Treefort Music Fest, South by Southwest) while also sharing bills with some of their favorite artists—Buddy Guy, Sam Bush, Steve Earle, Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit, Justin Townes Earle, and Grace Potter & The Nocturnals.
