The Cactus Blossoms is centered around songwriting brothers Jack Torrey and Page Burkum, who currently front a five-piece ensemble live. Their debut album, The Cactus Blossoms, was released last fall and earned a nod from country cable channel CMT for being one of the "10 Overlooked Albums of 2011." You can check them out live at their weekly residency at the Turf Club.

The Cactus Blossoms sat down with Mary Lucia for a chat and performed for the fans at the Minnesota Public Radio booth.
