About Me

Biography

Minnikin formed in 2001. With an influence of melodic and hard rock mixed with experimental writing they offer a new and exciting sound. From acoustic ballads to kick ass rock epics and an outstanding stage and lighting show they offer a varied and exciting live performance. With a warm welcoming to fans, the rare ..Europa.. demo album was released in 2006. Minnikin signed to Treadplate Records Ltd. in mid 2007 and the ..Europa demo has been re-recorded along with new material and is scheduled for a late 2007 release. Lots of new tracks are being recorded for a follow up album by early 2008.

Minnikin are Marc Playle (Guitars and Vocals), Glenn Minnikin (Bass and Vocals), Richard Docherty (Vocals and Guitar) and Ben Mummery (Drums/Percussion and Vocals)
