This series, presented by UNC-Chapel Hill's Center for the Study of
the American South, pulls local songwriters out of rock clubs and away
from their normal backing bands, putting them instead on a front porch
to play and talk about the place they call home. This month, Catherine
Edgerton and Kym Register=97who add sizable spunk to back-porch music in
their band Midtown Dickens=97join The Beast emcee Pierce Freelon and
Free Electric State's frontwoman Shirl=E9 Hale. They'll share songs and
stories in a conversation moderated by Local 506 owner Glenn Boothe,
who has watched the local music landscape shift for more than two
decades. Free/ 5 p.m. =97Grayson Currin
