BIO
Southern Ontario’s Mojo Minefield is an aggressive three-piece blues rock group carrying on the power trio sound that came to be in the 60s and 70s. With gritty vocals and cranked up guitar tones, they walk the tightrope between full throttle, psychedelic garage rock and in your face blues and roots music. “This album was a long time coming. It’s our own unique take on blues rock. Kind of an early Black Keys vibe, but heavier. Like Radio Moscow. When I heard those guys a couple years ago I thought, “this is it, this is the sound I’m trying to create.” Blues rock with just the right amount of face melting added in”, says Fry.
Lead vocalist/guitarist Tyler Fry cut his teeth in the local music scene in Kitchener, Ontario, regularly attending blues jams and learning from the seasoned veterans in the area. The rhythm section is made up of Scott Carere on bass guitar, and drummer Ethan Meyers, better known by the fans as Big Geno, who loves to get the crowd going and keep the energy high. After forming for a show in Mississippi in 2018 in memory of local blues man Mel Brown, Mojo Minefield stuck with it and has been spreading that southern hospitality around the Kitchener Waterloo region ever since.
