This page lists Wisconsin-based recording artists, who to my knowledge have never appeared on a recording as a singer or an instrumentalist. The following types of people and recordings will be listed here: ministers and sermons, storytellers, comedians, sound effects, historical recordings of non-musical events, plays with no music, poetry readings with no music, and any other similar non-musical recordings. These recording artists will be listed in my forthcoming book, (ca. 2028), FolkLib Index: Wisconsin Discography.
Please note: as this is a Web site about musicians and recordings, I will not list any Wisconsin resident storyteller or comedian who has never released a recording. Also, Wisconsin authors who have released "books on tape", etc. will not be listed. If you know about another Web site that lists Wisconsin Storytellers and/or Wisconsin Comedians AND which Wisconsin city they are from, I would be happy to link to it.
