“She’s like the little sister who grew up, got feisty and knows she’s exactly where she’s meant to be” says Laura Mina Mitic, front-woman to the new musical project, Miina.
Along with her longstanding creative partners (Pat Ferguson, Lo Waight, Graham Keehn and Jamil Demers) the five-piece cut their teeth as the band Carmanah, performing across North America including at Edmonton Folk, Winnipeg Folk, Hillside and Rifflandia music festivals. Two songs (Roots, Nightmare) went to Number 1 on CBC’s Top 20 list and Carmanah’s music received successful commercial radio spins, including on SiriusXM, Toronto’s Indie88, Vancouver’s The Peak and Edmonton’s CKUA.
With producer Gus Van Go, they pulled the grooviest aspects from their original sound and combined it with new inspiration and musical maturity honed during the still years of the pandemic. Miina’s debut album - Slow Motion - will be released spring 2023.
Putting strength in femininity and a passion for the planet at the forefront, Laura Mina’s voice is confident and graceful. The band’s live performance is both moving and fun, combining danceable modern sounds with retro and rich melodies.
“This new project honours our past while elevating our passion,” says Laura Mina. “With a little more wisdom and a lot more fire, we feel empowered and excited to turn over this fresh new leaf.”
Keep your ears peeled for Miina - 2023.
