No Longer Hung Up on the Hang Ups

Album cover for “So We Go” by the Hang Ups. Twin/Tone Records.

My only hang-up about the Hang Ups is how hard it is to come by their music. But, after many years of frustration whenever checking Amazon for MP3s by the Minneapolis band, tonight was the night I’d been waiting for. Now, four out of five of their releases are available for purchase as MP3s. I’ve been informed that their music is also available on Spotify. The Hang Ups are my favorite Minnesota artist. They made highly melodic alternative music in the ’90s. I recommend starting with their 1996 album, “So We Go.” And “What It’s All About” is my favorite song by them; it’s track 2 on “So We Go.”
