context_page_description: Paul Harold Westerberg is an American musician, best known as the lead singer, guitarist and songwriter in The Replacements. He launched a solo career after the dissolution of that band. In recent years, he has produced and recorded independent music from his basement home studio.
context_section_description: Westerberg has been honored with two stars on the outside mural of the Minneapolis nightclub First Avenue, recognizing performers that have played sold-out shows or have otherwise demonstrated a major contribution to the culture at the iconic venue. Westerberg and the Replacements each have a star on the mural, making Westerberg one of the few musicians to be honored with multiple stars. Receiving a star "might be the most prestigious public honor an artist can receive in Minneapolis," according to journalist Steve Marsh.
