Saturday Music Interlude — Field Report performing “Home (Leave the Lights On)”

Anyone who leaves home for long periods of time for work or service can appreciate this song.  Field Report is a Milwaukee, Wisconsin band fronted by singer Chris Porterfield.  The band garnered almost universal critical acclaim on its initial self-titled debut in 2012.  Since that release the band has reduced its membership from a septet to a quartet.  They are WXPN’s band of the month to watch and have already garnered raves from fellow musicians as varied as Mark Eitzel and Richard Thompson.  Critics have compared their music to Blood on the Tracks-era Dylan and Nebraska-era Springsteen.  The music is organic and genuine.
