BEMIDJI - Doyle Turner and Ted Hajnasiewicz are more than just bandmates.
"It just felt like meeting a member of the family," said Turner on Centerstage Minnesota, "and he is, he's my musical soul brother."
The two musicians, Hajnasiewicz from Minneapolis and Turner from Bemidji, met in a songwriting group and soon realized they worked well together.
They are releasing their debut album, as The International Treasures, with an album release show this Sunday, Sept. 17 at the Parkway Theater in Minneapolis.
Turner previewed three songs from the album during the Centerstage appearance. "Gimme Some Me," "Wild," and "Love Is a Lemon."
You can hear the complete interview, including all three performances, information on the album release and an additional show in Nov. in Fosston, and more above.
Centerstage Minnesota, Fridays at 2 p.m. and 10 p.m. on KAXE/KBXE, is made possible by the citizens of Minnesota through the Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund.
