Midtown Dickens' Kym Register and Catherine Edgerton have been friends since they were 16. They started making music together, even though they could barely play instruments at the time, and their first venues were living rooms, basements and parking decks. Thirteen years later, they’re releasing their third album, "Home." Midtown Dickens talks with Host Frank Stasio and plays live in the studio.
