Mood Swings playing the Stone Arch Festival this Sunday, June 17

In the blur of activity over the last week, i almost forgot that The Mood Swings will be playing the Stone Arch Festival in Mpls this Sunday at 5 pm down on Main St. between the Stone Arch Bridge and East Hennepin -- right down on the river, directly across from the new Guthrie. What was once a small-ish little neighborhood festival has turned into a fairly BFD. As a bonus, the setting is awesome; it's possibly one of the coolest live music venues you'll find in town during the packed "festival/block party" season. There's even a real cool brand new park right next door that just opened, so this is a no-brainer.

Appearing at 3pm on the same stage is Romantica, an intriguing local folk/country/pop outfit from Belfast via Minnesota who have recently joined forces with local lass Jessy Greene. Romantica has a new album coming out later this summer; i like what i've heard so far on local radio.
