Soul Asylum’s 45-Year Journey Unplugged | Venice Beach News
Description
Soul Asylum turns 45 with a global tour and a new live album, “MPLS Unplugged,” recorded at Minneapolis’s legendary State Theatre—30 years after their iconic MTV Unplugged session. Reuniting keyboardist Ivan Neville and featuring the STRINGenius quartet and Robert Robinson Gospel Singers, the band delivers a rich, layered sound rooted in their enduring legacy. Frontman Dave Pirner, the last original member, reflects on their Minneapolis roots, the power of live performance, and his own musical journey—from failed guitar lessons to trumpet struggles, finally finding his voice through Jimi Hendrix. It’s a celebration of community, resilience, and the timeless magic of music made with heart.
