Minto is a five piece folky, rock and roll band from Vancouver. Hailing from all over Canada, these five friends starting making country tinged folk music about five years ago and slowly progressed into a stomping good time of a band. Their first album, “Fields and Factory Floors” was a lofi gem with some mix-tape hits. And after sonically changing it up, the band decided to record a second album with indie rock super hero, Steve Albini, in Chicago, Illinois. The result was “Lay It On Me” which is getting critical acclaim. The gang gigs constantly around BC and Western Canada, and have decided to take their beer soaked, sweaty show on the road, coast to coast. If you get a chance to see or hear them, be prepared for a fuzzed out, smoke filled, gospel show that is way closed to damnation then salvation. See you soon.
Hey guys, Graham here from Twenty Centuries of Stony Sleep. Great to meet you all in Calgary on the 7th, what a fun show that turned out to be! We loved your music, cool harmonies and great tone from everybody (i mean, it was our bass amp and drum set, so we'll take some credit there...), but most of all, we were all talking the next day about how we could all sing along to pretty much every tune. Uplifting and life affirming!
We would love to play with you guys again, whenever, wherever....
Was an awesome pleasure sharing the stage with you guys n gal, and we were lucky enough to do it two nights in a row...heres to C-G-F throwdowns at house partys!!
It was great meeting you guys! Glad we got a chance to play a show together, hopefully it will happen again sometime soon. Good luck with the rest of the tour!
