DESCRIPTION:
In the latest episode of "Open Mic," Allen Cote and Joe Crockett of Milwaukee's The Championship, play a couple of tunes and talk about their musical relationship.

Going back some 17+ years, the two went to school together for just 1 year in Door County, before Allen moved to Austin, TX. While Joe honed his rhythm guitar and songwriting skills, Allen was learning a different style. It wasn't until later in life that Joe's band, The Championship, crossed paths with Allen and decided to make him the 5th member. His sounds blended with theirs and the result is the rootsy, alt-rock sound of The Championship that Midwesterners have grown to love.

"Open Mic" was filmed at 3rd Ward Records in Milwaukee, with the interview taking place at Blackbird in Bayview. "Open Mic" is produced by Mindpool Live.
