Fear the Beer: A Musical Salute to the Milwaukee Brewers   CD, digital album

(Self-issued)



"When I got the idea for this project a few weeks back, I really wanted to finish it ASAP so that it could be a soundtrack to this year's MLB playoffs," Nate said in a late-September Facebook post.

You need not share the capped-evangelist's team-devotion to appreciate the release under consideration. Freewheeling musical good-timin' hefts it beyond strict niche-fantacism envelope. Pickers crowding the bandstand purvey Western Swing, Honky-Tonk realness, Bluegrass, all-get-out Rockabilly, and even a bit of Polka in limber manners. Hardwood teems with young maverick/flame pairings, and table-tops are knuckle-tattooed by older enthusiasts who nod cherishment.

On his site, the University of Wisconsin musicologist shares an observation: "This labor of love project is meant to serve as a soundtrack for the 2025 MLB Playoffs, to pay tribute to a team that has been an absolute pleasure to follow all season, and as a reminder to make time for the things that bring joy in life."

Recommended: "Fear the Beer," "The Bud's for You," "Down on the Farm in Nashville," "Beer Barrel Polka," "Hank the Dog," "Four Long Years," "Road to the World Series"
