Celebrating 30 years of music together, Storyhill perform at Radio Heartland

It's only been a year — almost exactly a year, in fact — since Storyhill last visited our studio. Last time was to celebrate a reunion tour after a brief hiatus as a duo and the release of a new collection of live recordings called Stages. But this year, we couldn't pass up the chance to talk with the band about their 30th anniversary.
"What??" you say? Yup. Three decades ago, Chris Cunningham and John Hermanson started singing together in high school choir. Their friendship and mutual musical interests led them to start performing music together, and the rest is history.
So when Storyhill came into the studio this past week, they were also carrying with them a brand new album titled Where To Begin, a collection of songs written waaaayyyy back when they were first starting to write music together — but these songs hadn't ever been recorded … until now. Chris and Johnny stopped into the studio to sing and to talk about the early days.
