 It all started on the Porch...1996 ~ Deb and Kneebone used to jam on the back porch at Deb's shanty on Lone Tree Drive in Flastaff, Arizona. What started out as a casual music party became more when it was clear that there was a chemistry between the two. When jams turned into songs they 'hit the road' and are now performing at concerts, festivals, clubs, coffeehouses, and breweries in Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah. The Porchlights have released 4 CDs, and the 5th, a live album is currently in production. DISCOGRAPHY Released in 2001, our debut CD The Porchlights was recorded in Cornville and Jerome, Arizona at Multi-Purpose Recording Studios.
