HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2009 is going to be EPIC!!!!!!!!!!

we're off to a flying start with 3 tours booked in already. Wales in March, Cornwall in October and WE CANNOT WAIT to come to GERMANY in the SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There are some SERIOUSLY exciting things happening for the midden right now... album number 4 is shaping up to be an absolute peach!

There's some excellent collaboration going on currently... more on that as things develop.

Meg has written 6 new songs over Christmas and I've knocked out 3, and they're not half bad either (even if we do say so ourselves!)

can't WAIT to start recording!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MORE NEWS SOON!!!!!!

PS 3 is definitely a magic number...

Well well, no news since June... terrible! Not much to report, check myspace for on-going stuff and gigs. We're pretty much done for the year :o) OBAN at Hogmanay, but that's about it. Writing, writing, writing and recording in March. OH YES!!!!!! Can't wait to get back into the studio!

Have an amazing run up to Christmas and a fabulous 'rutsch' into the new year! love love love the Minty Chief xxxxxxx

The Mint is off to Germany for a week... ostensibly to check out some venues and talk to a few people, but actually just to drink some delicious German beer and see her mates! Oh yeah! Catch you when I get back....

Just got a message from Werner on myspace that some kind person has posted a couple of midden videos on you tube! Go to www.youtube.com and search for the midden and there we are! We were supporting Shooglenifty that night, it was a great gig! :o) A big shout out to all the Cwlwm Celtaidd crew - Mabon (the Welsh band who organise the festival) are coming up this way on tour in September, well worth checking out!! My wee acoustic night at the Aragon on Sundays is really picking up, we've had some brilliant performers along already and it's going from strength to strength! Oh and more good news....! I'm just about to book flights to Nuremberg for the Bardentreffen this summer (1st to 3rd August) so expect to see us in O'Shea's Beer Garden... Can't wait!!!!

Hello!!

Just back from another brilliant Cwlwm Celtaidd in Porthcawl - it's the best small festival ever :o) Things a bit quiet on the midden front, we're all busy with solo projects (educating (Kate) and lighting up (Meg) Scotland, making sweet music with other people (Coco and J-Lo), working on a solo album (Col) and sailing round the Med (Hazel) so it's a busy life! Still writing and getting together for festivals and tours though... Happy days! Roll on the summer sun... Minty xxxxx
