Songs From the Second Floor
Creator / Shooter / Editor
A music video series for Grand Rapids’ own 88.1fm WYCE that captures the on-air performances coming by the studio, with an emphasis on rising local artists.
For as long as WYCE has been around, they’ve had amazing musical talents come through and perform songs live on the air… so we started putting together these videos. As we liked how they came together, we then joined forces with some fantastic fellow talents at the Grand Rapids Community Media Center, and eventually… this series was officially born.

This one here is from the wicked-awesome Grand Rapids singer/songwriter Eric Kehoe. Definitely check him out. You can stream his whole album at his website: erickehoe.net
