More Than Lights...



I've seen a lot of rappers rap and singers sing, my taste in music moves far beyond the hip hop scene. Music is just on of those things that I can find something I love in a million different styles, like I'm sure most of you are. But you know how you have that one c.d. that you don't really admit to listening to. Or that concert you went to when you were 12 that doesn't come up in conversation? Well, think about the opposite of that album and those artists. The act that is easy to recommend to just about anyone. The show that you can invite all of your friends to because it is just good, fun and real.


That's the place I would put More than Lights, they're a group I've seen grow and change over the years. They are dropping an album, their first album and it's pretty damn exciting. The current line up have been playing together since 2007 but they root back to 2002 where three of the members met at an Arts High-school in Minneapolis. Along the way they were joined by New MC and Unicus, in 2004; the group is now 7 members strong and catching them live is something to be seen.


The album is 11 songs long and called, The Electric Prescription For All Your Funky Illz it is dropping this Saturday, November 21 at the Cabooze in Minneapolis.


For those of you not in Minneapolis, check out the album on iTunes or Amazon.com.
