Petoskey MI, United States (1975 – present)
Though Stevens had announced plans to make an album for each of the 50 U.S. states, beginning the series with the albums Michigan (2003) and Come On Feel The Illinoise! (2005, officially named Illinois), he has since then retracted the statement. “Sufjan Stevens is not going to write a record for each of the 50 states after all” was the original text included on the online liner notes for their Mews Too: An Asthmatic Kitty Compilation disc released on February 7, 2006. This statement was possibly included as a joke, as the text has since been removed and the current liner notes related to Sufjan Stevens reads, “Sufjan Stevens can fold a fitted-sheet (he once worked as a professional folder in a commercial Laundromat).”
Background
Stevens was born in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Petoskey. He attended Hope College on the west coast of Michigan.
