New Book: 'Got to Be Something Here' The Rise of the Minneapolis Sound

Looks Pretty Cool To Me! cool

Got to Be Something Here nails the atmosphere that I grew up in. Clubs, policies, and things that didn’t make sense back then, after reading this book make all the sense in the world. I think anyone who wants to understand musicians who hailed from North Minneapolis needs to read it. There are answers in these pages. - André Cymone

I pre-ordered this a couple months ago. It's by The Current's Andrea Swenssen.
She will have lots of Prince in it. She's written some beautiful pieces recently.

Welcome to "the org", laytonian… come bathe with me.

Andrea Swensson's a very good writer. This might be worth a read.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.
