People! It's summer and that means Spout Press is throwing its annual fundraiser party. Save Thursday July 17th on your calendars, because Spoutstock is happening.
In case you're new to this, Spoutstock is the annual cover song contest/wild party we use to raise a little funds for Spout Press, a non-profit literary small press based in Northeast Minneapolis. You will once again have a chance to vote for your favorite rock stars to win the Audience Choice Award and its coveted trophy.
We will have celebrity judges, surprise performances and an amazing beer selection down at Mario's Keller Bar. As always, cover charge will be minimal. We are celebrating our sixth year of Spoutstock with musical friends old and new. Won't you join us? Soon you will receive an email with all the details, including this year's list of rock stars. For now, prepare yourself. July 17th! Rocking Ever On, Spout Press.
