BLOOMINGTON, Ill. (AP) Passion-driven risk and plucky altruism.
That’s the thesis behind “Reckless Saint,” a budding venture into vintage music, stereo equipment and ephemera with a retail storefront that aims to empower the local music scene.
Helmed by Scott McCormick, a local musician who plays the guitar, sings, writes songs, and for whom music “has been a passion my whole life,” the store opened April 2 in downtown Bloomington.
“A reckless saint is someone who is trying to influence the world around them for good, and that often takes a little bit of boldness to do that,” McCormick, 61, told me during a recent visit.
