This week on MI Local, I feature punk rock coming out of Detroit, and we take a look around the region for upcoming shows by Eliza Thorp, The High Strung, and the brand-new band The Starlings.

I’ll also dip into summer vibes early with catchy tracks by local artists that could easily become your song of the summer.
