Field Report Summertime Songs Limited Vinyl LP

Overview:
FIELD REPORT, the Wisconsin-based, indie-alt quartet founded and fronted by Chris Porterfield, have announced their new album, SUMMERTIME SONGS on the newly revitalized Verve Forecast imprint. Centering around the narrative songs of Chris Porterfield (formerly of DeYarmond Edison with Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon), this is Field Report’s third and most expansive album, following in the vein of Wilco, The National, and The War On Drugs. Born in Minnesota, Chris Porterfield moved to Eau Claire, WI, where he was a member of the folk-rock group DeYarmond Edison with Justin Vernon (Bon Iver), Phil Cook, Brad Cook, and Joe Westerlund. When the band decided to relocate to North Carolina 2006, Porterfield opted to stay in Wisconsin. After spending the next few years writing and refining his own songs, Field Report was born. Opening slots for artists such as Counting Crows, Emmylou Harris, Jeff Tweedy and Aimee Mann soon followed. The self-titled debut album was released in 2012, followed by 2014's critically acclaimed MARIGOLDEN
