Backstory:
Minty Cloud is an eclectic group of dreamers hailing from the bustling cityscape of Los Angeles, California. The band was formed in 2015 and is composed of lead vocalist and guitarist, Ben “Benny” Armstrong, bassist, Lola “Lo” Greene, and drummer, Jack “Jax” Taylor. Each member, originally solos working in the city’s rich music scene, were drawn together by their shared love for creating ethereal tunes that evoke emotion and transcend reality. They found common ground in their desire to take listeners on an auditory journey, a mission they named themselves ‘Minty Cloud’ after.
After playing in local dives and recording in cramped studios for years, Minty Cloud was discovered in 2018 by renowned music producer, Leo Larkins. Impressed by their unique sound and strong chemistry, Larkins signed the band to his independent label “LarkSongs”. Since then, Minty Cloud has gained a substantial following and continues to captivate audiences with their soulful and enchanting music.
