Everyone Loves a Good Mix Tape: Heart Attack & Vine
“The times you lived through, the people you shared those times with — nothing brings it all to life like an old mix tape. It does a better job of storing up memories than actual brain tissue can do. Every mix tape tells a story.”
— Rob Sheffield (Love Is a Mix Tape)
Ok, so we might have moved away from cassette tapes and on to shuffled playlists but there’s still nothing sweeter than a great compilation, a great musical story. The Mix Tape asks a local band for a mixed bag of 5 tracks, including one from another local act. This week we’re delving into what tunes tickle the fancy of local rockers HeartAttack & Vine.
