An Evening with Minor Gold and Minuscule at The Second Wedge Brewing Co.

Powerhouse Cosmic Americana duo MINOR GOLD are ARIA nominated and award-winning songwriters & Tracy McNeil (CAN) and Dan Parsons (AUS). Since releasing their critically acclaimed self-titled debut album in August 2023 the pair have navigated life on the road without missing a beat.

Their sound echoes 70’s cosmic Americana with an easy charm and potent honesty but it is the indeterminate perfection of how these two artists' voices lock in together that hit right where the emotions live inside us. With dynamics ranging from the intense restraint of campfire intimacy through to open throttle abandon Minor Gold move you - weaving masterful harmonies and deft guitar playing around unforgettable stripped back performances.

The post-modern harmonic collective Minuscule is on a mission to redefine choral music. Offering a genre-bending blend of intricate five-part vocal harmonies and emotionally stirring tongue-in-cheek lyricism Minuscule continues to win over audiences nationwide. At times playful at times painful they explore every corner of the human experience combining the thought-provoking poeticism of Joni Mitchell and Gord Downie and the layered interweaving vocal fabric of Imogen Heap and Florence & The Machine. They have collaborated with genre-spanning Juno- and Polaris-nominated artists from wistful indie-folk group Great Lake Swimmers to epic heavy-metal duo Vile Creature – the latter for which they received a Juno nod for their choral arrangements.

The debut album Great co-produced by Minnes and Joe Lapinski of WOW! Recording Studio (Ron Sexsmith Sarah Harmer Woodshed Orchestra) features title track Great which secured Minnes' recognition as Songwriter of the Year at the Niagara Music Awards and was featured on CBC's Q.
