I was pleased to have Shawn Reed of Night People Records join me once again on the podcast show for this week. I did a feature on Night People with Shawn back in February of 2011 when I was just getting the podcast up and running. At that time Shawn was living in Iowa City and touring quite regularly as a member of the group Wet Hair. He has since re-located to the Twin Cities, and while Wet Hair has ceased activities, Shawn has kept his creative juices flowing through his ongoing work with the Night People label, through his own visual artwork, through record collecting, and through his deepening interest in reggae music. While in Mankato to DJ a reggae soundsystem event, Shawn stopped by the KMSU studios to chat a bit about some of the things he has been up to and to play a bunch of music from some of Night People’s latest releases. Check out the Night People website for more information about the label and to order any of the music played on this episode. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or comments. Hope you enjoy.
