FFM Gig Track: The Mines

  • Saturday, March 28, 2015
  • 11:15 AM–12:30 PM
  • CFAC Recital Hall

Our Gig Track infuses live performance throughout the festival, featuring a series of intimate performances and conversations with selected artists.

What if a band – whose members all have life commitments that keep them from constant touring – made music with no expectation other than to write, record and release songs and perform them as often as possible, in their region?  That is the question the members of the Grand Rapids band, The Mines, have been asking themselves since they first started making music together.

The band formed in 2004 as a four-piece until the line up settled as a trio – Todd Hoek (drums), Greg Lockwood (guitar, vocals) and Ethan Nickerson (bass, vocals) – Adding guitarist/ keyboardist/ vocalist Troy Hatfield in ’06 helped realize wider musical soundscapes in a live setting.

With the release of their soon to be released fourth CD, The Mines have proven the band and the music are enough to make time for, in the midst of busy individual lives.
