High on Stress is a 4-piece band that has received excellent notices and airplay in not only their hometown of Minneapolis MN, but across the nation and from as far away as the UK, the Netherlands, and Belgium. The band has weathered enough personnel changes, geographic obstacles and wardrobe malfunctions to have killed a less recalcitrant band. Reviewers have favorably compared the band’s “almost alt.country” sound to REM, the Replacements, Wilco, and Josh Rouse among others. Their third and latest album, Living is a Dying Art, is due out in fall 2011.

THE HARD LEFT

The Hard Left on Myspace 

"The Hard Left hail from Minneapolis, and they have the garage power-pop sound the area is known for (i.e., The ’Mats). This release is an 8-track mini-CD that’s all killer, no filler with the top tracks being "Lover Girl", "Who She’s Gonna Turn To" and "Take It Out On Me"....If Steven Van Zandt isn’t featuring these guys on his Underground Garage, it’s probably because he hasn’t heard them yet." Absolute Powerpop

KRUDDLER

Kruddler is a three-piece rock band hailing from the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota. They have emerged from the local club scene with a fiery brand of music comprising energetic vocals, big crunchy guitars, and a solid rhythm section. The songs are clever and tuneful, and the band is tight. Though Kruddler definitely has its own sound, Gallivan says it never involved any kind of planning. "I don't think we ever thought about it," he says. "I don't try to write songs that sound like something else... I don't want to preach to anybody."
