Mar. 2 SGR. SGR was an 8-piece funk and ska band featuring a tight horn section, and danceable original material. From the Lehigh Valley and nearby New Jersey, they were together between 1996 and 2005 and toured up and down the East Coast, performing regularly in the WVIA listening area. The group went their separate ways not long after this 2005 session, which captured the band at the top of their form. (Encore)
