Home for a Show: Cloud Cult

Local band, Cloud Cult will be performing at First Avenue next month.
Cloud Cult is the very environmentally friendly indie band that has born from the solo project of Craig Minowa. Nationally releasing albums since 2002, this Cloud Cult album is turning a new leaf in the band's history.
They have filmed a video, interviewed with MTV, and are having a cd release party on the 26th all in celebration of the new album "Feel Good Ghosts (Tea-Partying Through Tornadoes)"

Cloud Cult is the band that I've been meaning to catch for about the past 4 years since I moved to Minneapolis, but I am going to really make the effort to see them this time around. Minowa is backed by a steady band now and it seems like things are going in a great direction.

First Avenue tickets are on sale now for this show!

See you there!
