Cloud Cult - Truly Green in LA

LISTEN! LISTEN! LISTEN! Would be great to watch them live!

Minnesota indie sextet Cloud Cult are known for two things. One: The art rockers feature a pair visual artists -- Connie Minowa and Scott West -- who each complete a painting on stage during the band's concerts. "We have bidding sheets on our merch table and people go back there and put their highest bid on them," frontman Craig Minowa tells Spinner. "The highest bidder gets to take a little piece of the show with them.

"Two: Their radical and passionate measures to be green. In addition to donating the aforementioned bids to various environmental protection organizations, Craig serves as an Official Advisor to the United Nations on environmental issues.
