The Minks @ The Empty Bottle (8/12)

Soulful, heavy, psychedelic, blues, it’s hard to pin down the genre bending style of The Minks, which makes the band all the more desirable. Incorporating all aspects of rock, The Minks flirt all subgenres together in a way that more than works. Based in the music city, Nashville, the band was started by front woman Nikki Barber. 

 

Starting with their EP “Sweet Talk” in 2016, the band has grown renown in the Nashville underground rock scene. Their first full length album “Light and Sweet” came out just last year in 2019, with instant hits “I’m Okay”, “Nothin’ No More” and “J. Walker Blues”. 

 

If you’re a fan of rock in any capacity, you’re going to want to see all its subgenres blended together, and hear it’s next evolution.

MacGregor Salmon: Transfer student from Texas A&M to Loyola University Chicago, I am a Film and Digital Media major. Though my primary study is in film, I love all things creative and want to immerse myself in all kinds of mediums. Sharing and discovering music with others has always been an important part of my relationships with others. I grew up on funk, and the first song I can remember hearing is Sir Duke by Stevie Wonder. I still have much love for funk, but I also lean towards alternative, jazz, and anything experimental as I love to hear how new artists are changing the music scene. I find myself on Soundcloud often, looking for creative new works by independent artists. I also consider myself to be a writer, I love to write creative short stories, but I also want to use my skills as a writer to further my appreciation and understanding of music, and the artists behind their work.
