The Minus 5


You know who is amazing? Scott McCaughey. This dude has written hundreds and hundreds of songs. After establishing the Northwest as a credible place for bands with the Young Fresh Fellows, playing at Paul Westerberg's wedding, joining REM, establishing The Baseball Project, he still has time to put out albums as the Minus 5. The band has a rotating cast, but usually involves Pete Buck and Bill Rieflin as well as folks like Jeff Tweedy and Kurt Bloch. Fancy The Pop music? Check out not one, but two Minus 5 albums.

Thanks, Dave. I got 'Down With Wilco'when it came out, but I've lost track of him/them since.
