What a joy to have brothers, Steve and Sean McPherson, from Big Trouble on the show. Start with the important stuff, you can see them play on the last Saturday of each month at the White Squirrel. They play and show up in other iterations around town, but you can always count on the White Squirrel Residency. The rest of the hour we talked about everything else under the sun from how we become nicer to work with as we gain experience and perspective, how we feel about the spotlight on the Twin Cities and why someone might write a book for the crapper. We could have kept going!
Big thanks, as always, to Langen Goldstien (Girl at the Rock Shows) for cohosting. Our theme this week was Red and/or Wings. You can check out the songs we played below or our aspirational playlist on Spotify.
