NEWS - Minneapolis band Porch Light share "Arctic," set for Lolla, Shaky Knees and Hinterland

Porch Light emerged from Minneapolis with an inevitable momentum. Formed by Zac Fogarty (guitar), Jackie Uhas (vocals), Henry Hughes (bass), Kyle Siemon (guitar), and Tony O’Keefe (drums), the band began as a shared instinct rather than a defined plan—five musicians converging around a mutual pull toward larger-than-life indie rock and unforgettable live shows. Zac, Henry, Kyle, and Tony met their lead singer, Jackie, while she was singing karaoke at their local bar. After immediately asking her to join the group, the band quickly got up and running. In their first year of releasing music, that instinct quickly translated into something undeniable: a rapidly growing audience, a breakout digital presence, and songs that began circulating far beyond the rooms where they were written.

Their music carries the emotional clarity of confessional writing, delivered through arrangements built for open air; guitars that swell and fracture, rhythms that push forward with quiet urgency, and vocals from Jackie that can ground you or release you. Songs like “Oxygen” and “Fall Back” feel equally at home in headphones at 2 a.m. or live with a sold-out crowd singing every lyric.
