JPR Live Sessions: Next Up - Steve Poltz - Friday at Noon

JPR Live Sessions is a series of live in-studio music performances and conversations with artists from many different genres. The series is hosted by JPR Open Air hosts Dave Jackson and Danielle Kelly. Here's what you can look forward to in the coming weeks.

Steve Poltz - 7/12 at Noon

Born in Halifax and raised in Southern California, Steve Poltz is a unique singer/songwriter equally adept and tickling your funny bone and tugging your heart-strings. A hardworking performer, before the pandemic, he would be on the road up to 300 nights per year.

In addition to his own recordings - his latest is the 2022 album Stardust and Satellites (produced by Oliver Wood and Jano Rix) - he's a sought after collaborator who's written tunes with Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, Nikki Bluhm, and recent JPR Live Session guests Oliver Wood and Imogen Clark .

Steve Poltz joins us ahead of a show in Medford as part of the Ashland Folk Collective's Summer Concert Series. Hear JPR Live Session this Friday at noon.

JPR Live Sessions are made possible with support from The Talent Club offering cold drinks and live music in a casual atmosphere in downtown Talent, Oregon. Find their live music schedule at talentclublive.com

Dave Jackson curates the music on JPR's Rhythm and News Service, manages music staff and hosts Open Air, JPR's hand-picked house blend of music, JPR Live Sessions and Open Air Amplified. The exploration of music has been one of his lifelong passions.
