Johnny Solomon of Communist Daughter was a fixture in the tight-knit Twin Cities music scene. Forming the angular indie pop band Friends Like These and touring extensively, he received critical praise from far-flung sources that looked like the beginning of a promising career. The rising success masked his struggle with addiction and mental health problems, and quickly eclipsed his career, landing him in jail and treatment facilities across the country. Now, the band is back with a new record, The Cracks that Built the Wall, out October 2016.
