Socktopus plays poppy hip hop music with energy, humor and joy. We had three of the five members (Cornbread, Mikey and Ben) in studio. They are just as much fun in studio as on stage. They created an impromptu video as we listened to their music. It was fun to hear about their friendship, their community and their musical histories and how all of it leads to their great sound and vibe.
Big thanks to folks who sent us requests and recommendations for MN songs from musicians from Greater Minnesota. Check out the songs we played below or our aspirational playlist on Spotify.
