      All the musical recording artists listed on this page were either born, live, or have lived in Wisconsin. For other musicians who are, or have been, a member of a Wisconsin Bluegrass Band, see the Wisconsin Bluegrass Band Members page. Other musicians who have no known solo album, but who have appeared on at least one other recording, can be found on the Wisconsin Session Players pages. Other Wisconsin Artists/Groups not listed on this page. See help if you have one or more web links for a Wisconsin acoustic artist who is not listed.
      Notice to musicians reading this page: Were you ever a member of a rock band, either in Wisconsin or anywhere else? If so, and you would like to be included in Peter Roller's thesis for his Ph.D. in Ethnomusicology, please read about his project and then fill out his survey / [Archive] .

      Note: As I have time, all the links for Wisconsin recording artists with no known solo album will be moved to the Wisconsin Session Players page. If no solo album for them can be found within six months after they have been moved, their name and "Session Player" link will be deleted from this page. If, after that, a solo album is found to exist, all their links will be moved back to either here or one of the "by Genre" pages.

      This is done in a continuing effort to reduce the size of this page. As research progresses on Wisconsin musicians, many hundreds of Wisconsin recording artist names will be added to this site. It is not realistic to list several thousand names, and links for them, all on this one page. If you are looking for a particular Wisconsin artist or group not listed on this page, select one of the Wisconsin Artists sub-pages above, or search for them by name. The eventual goal for this page is to list only: 1) those who have a discography page where all their links can be found (see Alford, B and Allen, Eddie below), 2) individuals who have at least one solo album and whose Genre, etc. or Location doesn't fit on one of the sub-pages above, and 3) groups which don't fit on one of the sub-pages above.

      "name - Discog and other links" - this artist/group has a separate Discography page and all their links have been moved there
      "Discog (no known recordings)" - this is a call for your help. Please write if you have details about any recordings by this artist/group (solo releases, session work, or on a various artists collection), and where they can be purchased, so they can be documented on this Web site.

      5-05-2006 Note: As far as my discographies are concerned, artists who only have recordings on the Web, do not qualify as a "recording artist" until they appear on a physical LP, Cassette, CD or VHS/DVD video which exists in more than 100 identical copies, and either is, or at one time was, for sale to the public. When the Web site where their MP3 or other electronic files are stored is deleted, it will be as if that music never existed. I do not document ephemeral music like this.

      Please write if you know the real name for the following.
      Barry, bp, Brian, Chad, Foolio, Harmonica Joe, Howard, Jim, jl, Joel, John, Justin Tyme, Lee, Markopolis, mm, Pete, Ralph, Randy D., Ricci, Rosa, Steve, Super J, Swan Cat, Tommy Two Lips, Wayne, Wilber
