  • Walker Art Center and the Current Will Not Present Rock the Garden in Summer 2021
    NEWS Press Contact: Rachel Joyce 612.375.7635 [email protected] Online Press Room: walkerart.org/press-releases WALKER ART CENTER AND THE CURRENT WILL NOT PRESENT ROCK THE GARDEN IN SUMMER 2021 MINNEAPOLIS, NOVEMBER 11, 2020 — Due to uncertainties around planning for a large-scale outside event next summer, the Walker and The Current will not present Rock the Garden in 2021. After thoughtful consideration of how Rock the Garden could be coordinated and held in the time of COVID-19, the two organizations determined that the event in its current form could not be done in a way that would guarantee the safety of community members and artists. The decision to not present Rock the Garden next summer was a difficult one for the organizations to make, as both music fans and members of the Twin Cities community. The Walker and The Current have been teaming up to present the Twin Cities’ unofficial kick off to summer since 2008 and are hopeful that fans will be able to join together again soon. “This is a very difficult decision for both organizations. Although it may seem premature, the bulk of the planning, including booking bands on tour and securing permits, needs to be completed by the New Year. It is not feasible to do this work given the current situation with COVID-19. We are disappointed to not be able to share the event with our community next summer,” comments Mary Ceruti, Executive Director of the Walker. “Rock the Garden takes months of planning, and we have a talented team of event experts who know what is required to make it a success.

On it, he raps at full-clip to ride rolling drums and revving distortion. There’s an urgency that he keeps in careful check, and then unleashes for spring-loaded verses that represent his best work. P.O.S built his reputation as an innovator, with an unlikely punk rock past and expressive, honest content. He re-earns the accolades with every release. His records capture his charisma—they’re driving and sincere, the dark moments counterbalanced by some giggling banter with the engineer. On Never Better, the new disc, he conjures get-away cars, racing chariots, the pursuit of sirens, and the occasional rueful nighttime drive. P.O.S was born in Minneapolis as Stefon Alexander, where everybody still calls him Stef. As a little kid, he developed a fascination with an older cousin’s bass guitar. Stef was allowed to take it home and he banged on it happily for years before realizing that it was intended to be played through an amp. “I just thought it was supposed to be a quiet instrument.” As a teenager, he fell hard for punk rock. Minor Threat, At the Drive-In, Refused, Kid Dynamite. He played in a series of hardcore bands, sometimes as a drummer, sometimes on guitar and vocals.
