Carbon Sound's Julian Green and Sanni Brown on HEART BEATS and the Minnesota music scene
Coming up Tuesday at 9 a.m. on MPR News
MPR News host Angela Davis checked in with the team from Carbon Sound at our sister station, The Current.
Carbon Sound is a music stream, website and app “dedicated to celebrating the depth, breadth and influence of Black musical expression.”
The stream has been broadcasting for just a year and a half, but the small but mighty Carbon Sound team has been doing big things. Carbon Sound won an Anthem Award for its work last spring – that's an international award celebrating “purpose and mission-driven work.”
Content Director Julian Green and Host Sanni Brown joined MPR News with Angela Davis to talk about their newest work spotlighting DJ mixes and local musicians.
