Nick Hensley is the former lead singer and co creator of The District,
a regional act from the upper Midwest, co based out of St. Paul, MN and Chicago, IL.
Hensley created Love Songs For Angry Men shortly after The District called it quits in 2002.
Hensley’s alias, stage name and alter ego, Love Songs For Angry Men, originated as a bad joke…
similar to other shorter lived band names like Amish Puppy Mill and Billy’s Little Secret.
Unfortunately, for Nick and his band members, more than 12 years later... …THE NAME JUST WON’T GO AWAY!

Saint Paul and MPLS, MN. The albums are currently available at all major retailers, live shows
and the web. Both records have received several rave reviews from different media outlets
including a 4 star reviewfrom Paste Magazine and AltCountry.com and a best of 2010 local selection
of the City Pages.
