The Parkway is pleased to present a new documentary from Twin Cities PBS, The Wild West Bank Sound, highlighting the artists, venues, and cultural movements that made the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood a defining force in Minnesota’s music history. Blending archival footage, historic photography, and personal stories from musicians and community voices, The Wild West Bank Sound traces the evolution of a neighborhood that became a creative home for folk, bluegrass, reggae, rock, and more. From the studio behind acclaimed music documentaries including The Minneapolis Sound, First Avenue: Closer to the Stars, and Minnesota Hardcore, the film reveals how this cultural movement shaped both local and national music. A live Q&A with author and radio host will follow the screening.
