About this Event
FERAL MINKS - OSHAWA - SATURDAY MAY 17th 2025
Kitchener-based rock band Feral Minks began as a solo project in the throes of the pandemic, initiated by lead singer and guitarist Kent Merriam. By early 2021, Merriam had released the debut EP "Loam" under the Feral Minks name, which quickly garnered attention from Jay Emmons of The Glorious Sons. This led to Emmons and his longtime collaborator Steve Kirstein taking the reins for the production of Feral Minks' second EP. To complete their lineup, the band enlisted experienced rock musicians from the Kitchener scene: Algernon Friolet, Jay Hogle, and Ryan Whitney.
Since the release of their debut self-titled EP in the fall of 2023, Feral Minks has been on an unstoppable trajectory. In 2024, they clinched HTZ FM’s prestigious Rock Search title, joining the ranks of Canadian legends like Finger 11, The Trews, and The Glorious Sons. They have performed with City and Colour at the Tall Pines Music and Arts Festival and shared the stage with The Glorious Sons at the Key To Bala. This fall, Feral Minks will be releasing their highly anticipated sophomore EP, "Young Desire," and embarking on their first headline tour, which will see them hitting 12 markets across Southeastern Ontario.
with special guests HIGHTEENS
Formed in 2022 by former members of Die Mannequin and Hot Lips, HIGHTEENS was born out of a compulsion and obsession to continue writing music despite the state of the independent music scene after COVID. Drawing inspiration from 90s alternative music and modern songwriting, HIGHTEENS is a unique blend of contrasting styles that uniquely merges together to form something beautifully chaotic. This Toronto alternative rock group is both an ode to the great sounds of the past and a look at the defining sonic landscapes of the future.
