Tapes N’ Tapes haven’t had much of an affect on me until recently. Actually, the band’s recent impact on me has as much to do with why I shrugged off the surrounding cloud of fame, its a Minneapolis-based indie band that is honestly succeeding on a global scale. There’s something about knowing that people who developed their sound where you are currently developing (something) that is inspiring. So, please, be inspired by the local sounds of Tapes N’ Tapes:

It’s nice to finally hear you’re realizing the amazing environment and unbelievable talent that your current hometown can provide. Let me know if you hear of them playing in the cities, especially if it’s during the week–I’ll be there.
The Tapes ‘n Tapes show the Saturday before Letterman at First Ave was the best show I’ve seen in recent history. The band was so confident and headsure. They looked like the rockstars they are destined to be. Fast forward to Tuesday on Letterman. The entire band, except for maybe Erik Applewick, looked scared shitless. They still managed to pull off an amazing performance in front of a national audience. I’d love to hear a bootleg from their most recent First Ave show. I’ve seen video, but no mp3’s, but then again I haven’t looked for them.
