It's the 10th anniversary of the Tiny Desk Contest in 2024, and we took the opportunity to speak with some of the local entries from the Upper Peninsula. Since the contest began in 2014, more than 40,000 musicians from across the country have submitted their videos in hopes of being chosen as the winner. This year, we spoke with local entrants Chelsea Monaghan, Hannah Rundman, Jenn Copeman, and the Seth Brown Duo.
The May 4th, 2024 edition of The Shuffle was devoted to conversations and music from local entrants; listen back to the entire local 2024 Tiny Desk Contest feature:
