The Current wants to share great Minnesota music with the world, so we've partnered up with Manitoba Music – Winnipeg to swap two bands from each city for the ultimate Local Music Exchange.

In addition to being highlighted on The Current's airwaves, the four finalists in this Local Music Exchange  two from Minnesota, two from Manitoba  will be booked for a Nov. 12 gig in Winnipeg and a Nov. 10 at the 7th St. Entry, exposing acts from each city to new and thriving music scenes.

Last year, The Current listeners voted Gospel Machine and Reina Del Cid as winners of the first annual Local Music Exchange.

Now in it's second year, The Current's Local Music Exchange is crossing country lines ... and you decided what acts will represent Minnesota on the bill!

Finalists Announced!

Your votes are giving Minnesota acts ZULUZULUU and Sleeping Jesus an extra push beyond the border! They'll play Nov. 12 at Le Garage in Winnipeg and Nov. 10 at the 7th St. Entry in Minneapolis with Manitoba-based groups Lanikai and Micah Erenberg.

In addition to the Winnipeg-bound ZULUZULUU and Sleeping Jesus, Minnesota runner-ups Holidae, Mina Moore and Farewell Milwaukee will be featured on The Current's airwaves Nov. 4 to 10.
