Husker Du was a punk/hardcore trio formed in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA, in January 1979. The band consisted of guitarist/vocalist Bob Mould, bassist Greg Norton, and drummer/vocalist Grant Hart. They started as a punk band before transitioning to hardcore and eventually incorporating more melodic elements into their music.

After releasing several albums, Husker Du disbanded in January 1988 due to Grant Hart's struggles with alcohol and drugs, as well as the tragic suicide of their manager David Savoy Jr. Following the breakup, Bob Mould formed Sugar while Grant Hart formed Nova Mob. Both artists later disbanded their respective groups in the mid-'90s but continued to produce music for their solo projects.

Unfortunately, on September 14th, 2017, Grant Hart passed away from cancer. Today, Greg Norton is no longer involved in the music industry as he pursued a career as a restaurant owner.

A 2xLP set of rare, early Hüsker Dü live recordings, featuring original flyers and artwork Drawn from the historical Hüsker Dü recording archives compiled by Terry Katzman, this double disc live set is an essential companion piece to the band's Savage Young Du Box Set. While the SYD release principally featured studio demos, the 28 tracks presented on Tonite Longhorn are the time machine that vividly thrusts the listener straight back to Hüsker Dü's embryonic unsheathing on stage. Side A dates to July 1979. Side B gives us a full year's evolution to July 1980, while Sides C and D land the listener in September 1980. Perhaps 120 people in total saw these three Longhorn performances; until now, a handful at most have heard the playbacks. So, rare and fresh, it's all here: the songs, the driven performances, the small club intimacy of being in front of select friends, fans, and peers, with one fair shot at getting it right. These four sides compellingly document that you can't doubt that they did.
