Now available online, Local Music U Want: Northeast Ohio Punk and New Wave showcases materials related to NEO Sound and made available through the NHPRC grant. Local Music U Want focuses on the unique Northeast Ohio punk and new wave scenes of the 1970s and ‘80s, fueled by the changing post-industrial landscape of the “Rust Belt.” Unlike other music scenes in the U.S., Northeast Ohio punk and new wave primarily flew under the radar, allowing the music to evolve into something more avant-garde and exploratory. Featured in the exhibit are photos, stickers, flyers, cassette zines and other promotional materials from the Rock Hall’s NEO Sound collections on local bands the Dead Boys, Devo, the Waitresses, Pere Ubu, the Styrenes, Tin Huey, 15 60 75 (The Numbers Band), and more! Donors featured include musicians Chris Butler and Marky Ray and photographer Dave Treat.
