The Emerging Artists Series will take place every day of the festival on the Johnson Controls World Sound Stage with 88Nine Radio Milwaukee. Now in its 13th year, this series has highlighted up-and-coming local, national and international talent during daily performances that not only showcase great live music, but also engage the audience by having fans vote each day in a Twitter poll for their favorite performance. Every day of the Series, the band with the most fan votes will receive an “Emerging Artist Series Care Package” that includes nearly $3,000 in gear, merchandise and services. Additionally, two lucky artists will walk away with a College & Non-Commercial Radio Campaign from Planetary Group.
Blending guitar-driven flares and synthesized atmospheres into a sonic Indie Pop package, Clear Pioneer's music and live shows crafted by Grant Clementi, Jesse Carl, and Kyler Schmor reveal a story waiting to be told and aching to be heard. Their passion for connecting with people through music is evident from the moment you meet them; no matter the venue, audience or song - connecting people to hope and love by bringing them into a space of wonder and gratitude as they share their experiences through music is ultimately what they set out to do.
