About Field Report
Artist Biography
Wisconsin's Field Report centers around the narrative songs of Chris Porterfield, songs that, at their best, recall the writing and feel present on albums like Bob Dylan's Blood on the Tracks, Bruce Springsteen's Nebraska, and Paul Simon's Hearts and Bones in their hushed and passionate detail. Previously a member of the folk-rock group DeYarmond Edison and Megafaun, Porterfield spent a couple years writing a batch of songs on guitar prior to forming Field Report. The band developed a sparse, hushed, and intimate backdrop to Porterfield's intricately detailed and very lyrical narrative songs, and released its debut self-titled album in 2012. ~ Steve Leggett
