Coffee Break: One hit wonders

by Sean McPherson and Anna Weggel

May 28, 2021

We are JUST about to head into a tasty Block Rockin' Weekend, playing three-song sets from your favorite artists as we welcome summer to Minnesota, starting at 10 am today and continuing all weekend long.

But before we do - why don't we cleanse the palate by putting the spotlight on artists who weren't lucky enough to have a sensible three song set worthy of airplay...
