BONUS MUSIC: Zach Pohl, 'Whirlpool'

Today's Live Music Friday guest on Current State is Zach Pohl. He's touring the midwest and the northeast this summer, and we’ve invited him here while he’s spending some time in Michigan.

Zach works out of the music hotbed that is Austin, Texas. We hear a soulful touch to his style of folk music.

Zach Pohl appears in WKAR's Studio S to sing "Mr. Clock" and "Backslide."

Scott Pohl has maintained an on-call schedule reporting for WKAR following his retirement after 36 years on the air at the station.
