Female rockers have a rich history in the Twin Cities

Sunday night, in honor of Women's History Month, blogger Andrea Swensson will take over the host's chair on "The Local Show" which is heard on our sister station, The Current.

In addition to playing some of the great rock music created by Minnesota women over the years, she will interview a few of the pioneering figures from the scene.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with Swensson about the upcoming show.
