Pop music critic at the St. Paul Pioneer Press. All shade very necessary. Former dancer at the Grind. World weary, cynical arbiter of taste. Gen X, baby.

Drunkenly arguing with them, at the venue's bar.
Anyway, I've been on a huge Webb Bros kick as of late. Beyond the Biosphere, Maroon and the self-titled album are full of bangers.
I was in a toxic relationship when Maroon came out and it will forever be the soundtrack to that era in my life.
