ST. PAUL, Minn. — Most local music fans know that Justin Vernon, the leader of Grammy Award winning Bon Iver, hails from Eau Claire, Wisconsin.

But Vernon is just one of many artists to come out of that surprisingly vibrant music scene.

The Eau Claire connection is the subject of a special edition of The Local Show on our sister station The Current this Sunday. DJ David Campbell discussed the show with Morning Edition host Cathy Wurzer.
