Joe Hertler of "Joe Hertler and the Rainbow Seekers," a Lansing-based band, shared his favorite songs from Michigan-based artists in 2022.

Today, we revisited just a few of our favorite moments in music on Stateside in 2022.

A new investigation by the Detroit Free Press suggest corrections officers could be a main source of drugs in state prisons. Also, we talked to the minds behind the Lansing Facts Twitter account. Plus, Ojibwe artist Andrea Carlson on commemorating a dark day in Indigenous history.

Today on Stateside, an investigative reporter spoke about election-related tensions this year, and we heard more about a new art exhibition that is featured across Michigan. Plus, the head winemaker at Black Star Farms dished on the fall harvest.

Detroit artist Scott Hocking showed us around the city that in many ways is his studio. He's a specialist in creating beauty in the spaces most people have left behind, but his latest installation is much more public facing: in front of the Huntington Place convention center downtown.

Today, we heard an interview with two state representatives who discussed their bipartisan bill that would incentivize safe firearm storage in homes. After that, we listened to an interview with a Detroit artist.

On this episode of Stateside, we recapped all we have learned about the GOP candidates running for governor. Then, an installation in downtown Ann Arbor commemorates the children lost during the ongoing war in Ukraine. Also, we continued the IPR miniseries on oil spills.

David Zinn is one of Ann Arbor's best artists. His canvas? The sidewalk.

Hundreds of protesters gathered in Oxford, Michigan, to rally for stricter gun laws. Next, the executive producer of the Moth Mainstage discusses the upcoming show in Lansing and the organization's new best selling book. Finally, two artists talk about the installation they're working on to commemorate Vincent Chin.

Detroit-based creative, Sterling Toles, is best known for his deep catalogue of sounds, beats, and pieces. But he is also an accomplished visual artist. His first solo exhibition at Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit is called s(h)elves, and it's on view now through June 12.
