#MUSIPOLITIX 6/30/20 7pm CST  Our guest Andre Cymone is possibly best known as Prince's first bassist and childhood friend. He's had a successful solo career including the top 10 R&B hit "The Dance Electric". He's had a successful career as a producer including hits for artists such as Pebbles, Evelyn Champagne King, and Jody Watley ("Real Love" being a personal favorite of mine.) #AndreCymone recently released the single "Our World Is On Fire" with 100% of the proceeds from record sales going to Sabathani Community Center in Minneapolis, Movement 4 Black Lives and Dream Defenders.  

My cohost Michael Bland was Prince's drummer from 1989 on (perhaps best known for the iconic Diamonds and Pearls drum solo) and has been a member of Soul Asylum for 15 years. He toured or did session work with Chaka Khan, Maxwell, the Jonas Brothers/Nick Jonas, Mandy Moore, Demi Lovato, George Benson, and many many others. He is also a loud voice for social and political issues in Minneapolis.

7pm CST Tuesdays Michael Bland and Dan Spiffy Neuman will be going live on Facebook and YouTube to discuss music, Minneapolis, and issues that matter to us. For those who dont know Michael, he was Prince's drummer from 1989 on (perhaps best known for the iconic Diamonds and Pearls drum solo) and has been a member of Soul Asylum for 15 years. He toured or did session work with Chaka Khan, Maxwell, the Jonas Brothers/Nick Jonas, Mandy Moore, Demi Lovato, George Benson, and many many others. He is also a loud voice for social and political issues in Minneapolis. And if you're my Facebook friend you should already know him as I talk with and about him all the time.  The idea is to have a positive, issue driven musician podcast/livestream.  #MUSIPOLITIX #SOCIOECONOMUSICS #BETWEENTWOBEARDS  #GeorgeFloyd #BlackLivesMatter #Covid19 #Prince #SoulAsylum
