Backstory:
Minty Mile is an unexpected blend of childhood friends who found their shared love for music during their high school years in the small town of Mint Hill, North Carolina. The band consists of three members: lead singer and guitarist, Eliot James, bass guitarist, Ray Matthews, and drummer, Lily Carter. Each of them brought their unique flavors to the band, and together, they started creating music in Eliot’s parents’ garage. They used to perform in local gigs and their school’s annual events, which helped them gain popularity within their community. Their broad range of influences, combined with their passion for storytelling through music, helped them to create a unique sound that eventually gave them a break in the regional music scene.

“Running Roses”

Full song lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Em C
Running roses, down the lane,
G D
Chasing shadows, in the rain.
Em C
Your laughter, like a sweet refrain,
G D
Echoes softly, amidst my pain.

(Chorus)
Em C G
In the Minty Mile, we roam,
D Em C
Underneath the starlit dome.
G D Em
With our music, we have flown,
C G D
In every heart, we’ve found a home.

(Verse 2)
Em C
Through the twilight, we shall tread,
G D
Carving stories, yet unread.
Em C
With melodies, our fears we shed,
G D
In the Minty Mile, our spirits led.

(Chorus)
Em C G
In the Minty Mile, we stay,
D Em C
Where the night meets the day.
G D Em
With our music, we sway,
C G D
In every soul, we find our way.
