Uncle Kracker has made many appearances on nationally publicized television shows in order to promote himself. This rising star has been on tour since the last two weeks in January and is settling in with the media quite well. However, his opening act, Angry Salad, was more then willing to talk to anybody and everybody. After the concert, lead singer and guitarist Bob Wayland, bass player Brian Holland, electric guitarist Alex Grossi, and drummer Anthony Chisano were out signing autographs, shaking hands, and making small talk with concert-goers and fans. Wayland started the band after he got out of college six years ago.
All members are from Boston, except for Holland, who is from Texas.
This was their first appearance with Uncle Kracker and they are hoping for more shows with him. Angry Salad and Uncle Kracker share the same label. Blackbird Atlantic assigned them the gig with Uncle Kracker. Angry Salad is not new to the Upper Peninsula though. They have also done a show in Marquette.
