Travel Channel show coming to Tap Root

The WhipsawsThe Whipsaws

By now you’ve probably seen an episode of reality TV shot in Alaska. And if you check out local music with any sort of frequency, there’s a good chance you’ve seen The Whipsaws at Tap Root at some point. Those two forces converge Tuesday, as the Anchorage-based Americana rock band performs for a taping of what the band said is an as-yet unnamed new series for the Travel Channel.

Filming begins 7 p.m. at Tap Root, and according to a Facebook event page, a celebrity host will be on hand, though the band also told me they aren’t at liberty to say whom.
