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. Recent highlights include playing a packed show at CMW and having there Music Video featured on Much Music's The Wedge. If you get a chance to see or hear them, be prepared for a fuzzed out, smoke filled, gospel show that is way closer to damnation than salvation.
