Minor Kingdom: A Word from the Outside Looking In
Minor Kingdom is the musical offspring of local Minneapolis artist Kristian Melom. You may have caught Kristian recently performing live at the Electric Fetus, but he’s been making his rounds around the local circuit for months now. We’re fans on this end, and we always hope local artists receive the recognition they deserve both in town and abroad. But sometimes recognition abroad can be a mixed bag. Case in point – a Minor Kingdom interview article forwarded to us today. You can find the article by following this link, but here’s what really perked our interest.
…the record hardly feels cramped, but open, as if dug up from his native Midwestern roots.
Which brings us to Minneapolis, hardly known for being a musical bastion, but shadowy folk acts are continually excavated from the region. – Verbicide Magazine
Well now, someone hasn’t been doing their homework as the journalism teacher prescribed, have they?
Great interview Kristian, you’re submissions were well received. But as for the extraneous commentary…
Minor Kingdom performs tomorrow evening at the 331 Club. Go check it out!
