In the Minnesota musical hierarchy, Prince rates higher than King. But the royal rocker has given his blessing to the newish trio featuring twin sisters Paris and Amber Strother, who relocated from Minneapolis to Los Angeles a few years ago. Prince not only presented King in concert last year at Paisley Park but, after the trio's impressive debut album, "We Are King," was released this winter, he attended both of King's performances in Minneapolis clubs. Their gauzy soulful sound — think Sade squared fronting a modern-day Soul II Soul — makes us want to claim King as Minnesota royalty.
