Season 2 kicks off with the founder of the Winona, MN based Midwest Music Festival. Sam is also a musician who records and performs under the moniker, Bo. Monroe (one of his songs, Threnody, is the intro and outro music for this episode). He also just converted his Some Sum Studio music and art space in downtown Winona into the Midwest Music Store, which features music and merchandise from local and regional musicians and artists as well as housing an intimate performance space.
