City on the Make is a band from South Minneapolis, Minnesota comprised of childhood friends Mischa Keegan (guitar, vocals), Mike Massey (vocals), Stephen Rowe (bass, vocals), and Colin Stumbras (drums). Making music together for years, the band City on the Make emerged onto the Minneapolis scene in 2004. Purists may disagree (or give a resounding cheer, depending), but City on the Make is a "blues" band in the truest sense - raw soul channeled through musicians by way of their hands, voices, and messages of a hard-lived working-class world.

The 757s: Can you really record two albums worth of material just a week after forming a band? For the four members of Twin Cities-based The 757s, the answer is “yes.” The 757s departed from the norm by recording their debut album after their very first practice session—with no written songs or extensive rehearsals. “Our model quickly became writing songs in the 10 minutes prior to recording them,” says the band’s founder, Seth Zimmerman. “The idea was to put together a group of friends that could play and get along, which seemed reasonable at the time.” Read more about The 757s on Last.fm.

Dragons Power Up! is a rock group from St. Paul, Minnesota, formed in 2005 by multi-instrumentalists Mike Coyne, Dan Ries, Mike Ries, and Chris Tures. In 2011, Coyne left DPU! and the music world under amicable circumstances, at which point longtime producer/friend Spencer Wirth-Davis (Big Cats!) offered his services as full-time bassist/collaborator/member. Each member drawing from his own corner of musical influences, their sound marries loose, noisy guitars with tightly-wound rhythm section and vocals atypical of today's indie rock landscape.
