I am heartbroken to have to share this news w/the MN music community - yesterday we lost an amazing artist, woman, & friend. A truly genuine person who had a passion for her community & a drive to share that passion with the world.
We will miss her more than words can express. 🖤

Happy 64th birthday to @briansetzer59 of The Stray Cats. The @rockhall listed “Rock This Town” as one of 500 songs that shaped rock n roll. The song was produced by Dave Edmunds, a well known producer associated with the UK pup rock sound of the 1970s. #VinylTapCurrent
