KMSP, MPR To Air ‘Shine On Minnesota: The Replay’ To Support Second Harvest Heartland

Fox-owned KMSP Minneapolis, in partnership with Minnesota Public Radio (MPR), today will air Shine On Minnesota: The Replay, a one-hour cut of the original broadcast event featuring local musicians and talent to benefit Second Harvest Heartland during the pandemic. The second Shine On Minnesota broadcast event will air on KMSP today, Dec. 22, at 8 p.m. CT, and again on Dec. 26 at 10:35 p.m. It will include entertainment, musical performances, inspirational messages, and stories of hope from some of Minnesota’s favorite artists and celebrities.

“Though we’re nearly seven months removed from our first Shine On Minnesota broadcast event, the need within our local community remains and is greater than ever before,” said KMSP General Manager Sheila Oliver. Shine On Minnesota: The Replay will raise funds for Second Harvest Heartland. We are proud to bring these talented Minnesota performers together again ahead of the holidays.”

Shine On Minnesota: The Replay is hosted by Jason Matheson, of The Jason Show, Amy Hockert of KMSP News, MPR News’ Cathy Wurzer and The Current’s Jill Riley. When Shine On Minnesota aired in May, it raised nearly $150,000 for Minnesota nonprofits. These additional broadcasts will raise funds for Second Harvest Heartland to support efforts to provide food security to Minnesotans in need throughout the holiday season. Donations can be made throughout the broadcasts at www.ShineOnMN.com.

Shine On Minnesota: The Replay will showcase videos, performances, uplifting moments and messages from some of Minnesota’s favorite artists and celebrities. The lineup includes:

• The Okee Dokee Brothers
• Dessa
• Yam Haus
• Soul Asylum
• New Power Generation
• Michael Shynes
• Jeremy Messersmith
