Shut Up & Listen 2023: Mike Munson

Heading out

Marcia at the wheel

First picture on arrival

Songwriter Mike Munson

Barrels of the good stuff

Rick Schneider, who distilled it

Mike Muson says hello

and begins

As he plays

I wonder

how such truthful Blues

can reside within

such a serene man.

Nightfall

Kirk Johnson, a Shut Up and Listen regular

Retired Isanti Deputy Sheriff Gene Wicht (another regular, and an old friend)

Finally Mike steps aside

while Rick explains how Mike Munson isn't just another bluesman.

Rather, he has a vision for the Blues.

Which is true. Just listen to him to hear it.

"Drive safe. And watch for deer!"

Rick and Kirk, friends since grade school.
