This Saturday at 2 PM, we'll broadcast a recent performance by Tallgrass on "Java Blend." 

Host Ben Kieffer chatted with the band throughout the broadcast to find out more about their latest album— God, Sin, Whiskey, and Women—as well as learn about their experience opening up for President Obama on a campaign stop in Iowa City!

Tallgrass is an Iowa City-based band that mixes gravel road vocals, quick-picked guitar, and a rhythm section with stomping ground sound. Raised by wolves, taught by squirrels, enemy of the owl. Loved by little old ladies and cats throughout the Tri-State area. Members of the group played together for years in the Jensen Connection and the Glitch, and they're glad to be making music again.

Ben Kieffer is the host of IPR's River to River
