Each year, through its MN Spin program, the Hennepin County library acquires music by all kinds of Minnesota musical acts. Then, the public can stream the music and library cardholders can download the tracks. The names of artists selected in 2020 were given to the Hook and Ladder to curate into MN Spin Virtual Fest. The fest will be available at the hook mpls dot com at 7PM on January 21 and 28. Hook and Ladder curator Joe Holland talked to Phil Nusbaum about the curation process and the groups presented.
