Midwest Avengers
Song Title - "Love On Fire"
With video number seven of Lo-Fi Cherokee 2023, we're thrilled to spotlight Midwest Avengers. This trailblazing hip-hop collective has energized the St. Louis music scene for 30 years. Celebrating diversity and masterfully blending the worlds of rap, punk, and old-school 90s hip-hop, their performances are a dynamic and vibrant party for your ears. In this unique episode, Midwest Avengers delivers a fiery performance of their track "Love On Fire" set within the chill ambiance of Cola Lounge (2834 Cherokee St.), an inclusive hangout for cannabis connoisseurs on the vibrant Cherokee Street. This locale's laid-back vibe perfectly complements the band's multi-genre sound that harmonizes elements of punk, rap, and old-school hip-hop, a style that mirrors the St. Louis music scene's eclectic diversity. Born from a group of skater friends bonded by a love for rap and punk music, Midwest Avengers has grown into a musical collective prioritizing diversity and inclusion. Over the years, more than 50 musicians have joined their ranks, and a dedicated 'crew' of over 150 family, friends, and fans enriches their community. Their latest album, "Vengadores Del Medio Oeste," an homage to the band's Latino and Native American members, embodies this inclusivity. Despite pandemic-related challenges, Midwest Avengers have relentlessly continued to create, collaborate, and keep the party going. This performance is your invitation to join that celebration and soak in the band's unique sound and the throbbing heart of the St. Louis music scene.
