We’re also featuring music by the artists who took home the 2025 WAMI for pop album of the year: “7000apart”. A duo comprised of Green Bay Preble High School alumni, former Swedish exchange student Amelie Eiding and hometowner Jonathan Kresin, the music of 7000apart entertains, uplifts, and helps to destigmatize mental health struggles that many of us are experiencing. They’re touring all over Northeast Wisconsin this summer - be sure to check them out!
