Minas is the project from Greek/Welsh producer & musician James Minas, alongside rhythm section the Davies Brothers.
Minas grew up in the circus with parents who were heavily involved in the 1980’s Punk scene and then moved to secondary school in the Welsh Valleys. His music draws from the boredom and shenanigans that took place. The songs reveal stories of a checkered past over a mix of deep melodic soundscapes and loud, aggressive impacts. Covering subjects from his personal struggles with mental health (“My heart was giving my ribs a kicking”) to disillusionment (“Three pound meal deals feeding my mates”). Minas holds a mirror up to society, trying to understand it. As a respected producer, James is working to build a new sound for the South Wales scene with a number of artists and genres. However, as an artist, Minas presents his own brutal honesty and lays open a vulnerability for all to hear.
After a slew of one off-releases in 2020 & 2021 - Drinker, Burner and the Nudge EP - Minas is on course to release his debut album 'All My Love Has Failed Me'. With the critically acclaimed and internationally recognised single Payday already opening doors, his new single Foreign is the next chapter.
