Here is a reiteration of the details you may or may not already know... *Official Press Release - May 1st 2009* A Shining Moment in Minnesota Music. Saint Paul, Minnesota – The vibrant local singer-songwriter Nicholas Mrozinski’s last three albums came with critical acclaim, but—with some big time help, and a ton of steam—it is his newest project, Together We’re Stronger, that delivers some truly great songs. In 2008 we watched Nicholas lose over 100+ pounds and perform over 150+ shows. This new found energy, passion, and momentum brought All-Star Minnesota musicians out of the woodwork to be a part of his new album and to share their own gifts. Together We’re Stronger is not only a testament to the times we face, now, together, but also a validation of the thriving local Twin Cities music scene. The players contributing to the album span over 40+ local bands, unofficially dubbed “The Feelin Orchestra” after Mrozinski’s nickname “The Feelin”. The way everybody came together to contribute like this really makes the album name ring HOME. It also says a lot about Nicholas’ individual talents. Ask any of the contributing local musicians and they’ll tell you that Nicholas’ music is special. Referring to his “global and magnetizing voice,” Rift Magazine believes he is “a chosen one” in the local scene. Budgeteer News discovered that Nicholas’ “music draws you in, and keeps you fixated from the first note. It's like falling in love with music all over again.” Summing it up is The Duluth News Tribune who proclaims, “This man is capable of producing such a warm sound, you’d swear you were sitting in front of an open flame.” It’s time to start believing in your local music scene again. Come see why on Friday June 5th, 2009 at the wonderful Cedar Cultural Center. DETAILS Who: Nicholas Mrozinski with The Feelin Orchestra.
