About Me

Hello, and welcome to Minipop. We are 2 girls and 2 guys that make dream-pop music out of San Francisco, CA. Our debut album, 'A New Hope' will be coming out on November 6th on Take Root Records. Hopefully we will be coming to your city soon....
Some Press:
From Filter-mag.com:
“Are you going to San Francisco? Be sure to check out Minipop and their new single “Like I Do” with flowers in your hair.” The San Francisco based quartet featuring Tricia Kanne at the helm is reminiscent of The Cardigans, while shades of Metric, Tegan and Sara, and Rogue Wave apparently rubbed off on them in the past year of touring.“Like I Do” is a pop treat that finds its way into your head and stays there. Kanne’s fragile vocals mixed with hooky guitar riffs and electronic ambience have constructed an impressive pop song that tastes as good as biting into a fresh poppy seed muffin. "
"This five-song debut EP shows that while Minipop can sound as sweet and cute as sprites, it is also not afraid to turn on the juice and make a mighty racket." - Frank Valish, Under the Radar
