Meet MGK’s House Band 2023: PORCH

Introducing our MGK House Band 2023: PORCH.

A true Rock-n-Roll musical experience spanning the 60’s to today. PORCH packs the house from New Jersey to King of Prussia, PA. “It’s like rocking out at a house party to an iPod stuck on random!” With an infectious setlist that moves the audience up on their feet singing and dancing along to crowd favorites and rock classics, at a Porch show, there is something for everyone. PORCH encourages the audience to be part of the journey; the crowd anthem at the end of every Porch show is “ONE MORE SONG!”

Porch started as a jam session on the front “Porch” of acoustic rhythms and vocalist Tom’s Bucks Co. home. Featuring the 3 founding members, Karley, Tom & Steve, they came together to put on a small show for lead vocalist Karley’s Dad’s birthday.

They floored the crowd with their musical range, charisma, and sound.

The three began playing smaller local acoustic venues while growing their sound and fan base. As the sound and crowds grew, so did the need to expand the band. PORCH invited other experienced and talented musicians to join in the mayhem. It produced the sound and show you hear today. Uniquely and sonically PORCH.

On November 1, 2023, we crowned PORCH as the 2024 102.9 WMGK House Band. After winning their semifinal heat, they ultimately won the Battle of the Bands competition. PORCH will be featured at WMGK shows throughout 2024. This opportunity is opening new doors to expand their musical reach to all the future fans of PORCH in the tri-state area and beyond.
