The Sound

Today on The Sound we check out the latest album from Gregg Hall titled Echoes From The Treetops. Gregg, a staple in the regional music scene has played in numerous bands over the years from The Smokin’ Bandits, The White Iron Band and his own band Gregg Hall and the Wrecking Ball just to name a few. Echoes From The Treetops was recorded at the legendary Pachyderm Studios in Cannon Falls and was produced by Chad Staehly who plays keys in Great American Taxi and High Hawks and has worked with the likes of Todd Snider. With Echoes From The Treetops we hear Gregg continue to evolve, this time with a more classic rock sound that’ll get you movin’. I caught up with Gregg with a phone call as he was driving to Minneapolis to pick up his bass player for a gig. Typical right? Hmmm, did I just make a bass player joke? Who knows, I’m Bill Stoneberg, get ready for some old school rock n roll with Echoes From The Treetops, the latest album by Gregg Hall, Tonight on The sound.
Original air date: 05/18/22.
The Sound is written and produced by KQAL 89.5FM on the campus of Winona State University.
The Sound is made possible by a grant from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
