Artist: Kill the Vultures

Crescent Moon and Anatomy, better known as Kill the Vultures , recently performed for the Twin Cities Public Television series MN Original .

This new track is titled Somebody, MN and it's purpose is to promote the upcoming 2012 Welcome to Minnesota tour. The song and tour both feature Kill the Vultures, Big Quarters, [...]
