Mipso, string band that formed at UNC, tied to North Carolina by family, past and music


Mipso formed in Chapel Hill five years ago when all its members were students at UNC. The band is still officially based there, though the group’s real home these days is on the road. “We pay rent in Chapel Hill, but I think it’s a stretch to say we live there,” Terrell said. “We’re only there about one third of the time.” (Greensboro News & Record)
