Purple Highs - Heidi Vader - Episode 19
Heidi Vader, who grew up in south Minneapolis just a few miles away from Prince's high school, has been a devoted follower of the legendary musician since his Dirty Mind days. In this podcast, she shares stories of her experiences watching him perform on the Triple Threat Tour, at First Avenue, and at Paisley Park. Following Prince's passing, Heidi established the Purple Playground, a non-profit organization run by fans that pay homage to Prince's legacy through an Academy of Prince music program. This program provides teenagers with the opportunity to learn about Prince, collaborate with the musicians he worked with, and make original music. We believe that Prince would have appreciated the program and encouraged you to explore it at https://www.purpleplayground.org/. Listen to Purple Highs to learn more about Heidi and her passion for preserving Prince's legacy.
