Minnaars

Event information

Since they began playing live last year, Leicester's math rock/ pop quintet Minnaars have already notched up shows all over the UK and in Europe.

Produced by Forward Russia's Tom Woodhead, their brand of incessantly catchy, dark-disco-electro-rock fuses pop orientated intricate poly-rhythms with floor shuddering dance beats and has garnered them attention from every aspect of the music industry. The band is signed to Rimeout Records (Japan)
Hip Hip Hip (France).

With pending releases in Japan and Europe, numerous UK Festival appearances last year (inc. Reading & Leeds and Summer Sundae), a European tour and praise being heaped upon them by Radio 1, Xfm, NME and even Gavin and Stacey star Mat Horne, it seems they really are the genuine ones to watch in the next twelve months.
