"Music is more than a series of notes – music is a pathway to a stronger, more vital community." -Mayor Chris Coleman

Mayor Coleman is joining Sean and Lindsay today to talk about the Year of Music – a year-long celebration of music in St. Paul. From venues, to artists, to their supporters, Saint Paul will spend 2016 highlighting the people and performances that make up its music community.

So for today's 9:30 Coffee Break, what bands do you want to hear that will be performing in St. Paul in 2016?

And thanks to Mayor Coleman for joining us today!
