BIOGRAPHY

After releasing their debut album HOUSEHOLDS in December 2016, MINDSEED earned a nomination for Best Alternative Recording at the 2017 YYC Music Awards.

In the same year, MINDSEED was selected to perform in the Jim Bean Make History Talent Search (sponsored by Universal Music, Canadian Music Week and X92.9) and opened for pop-punk legends MXPX.

In 2018, MINDSEED released their hip-hop inspired single Braggadocious, as well as earned a nomination for the Zachariah and the Prophets Memorial Award at the 2018 YYC Music Awards.

2019 saw MINDSEED release Renovations, a follow-up EP to their debut album Households. It incorporated elements of alternative, hip-hop and even dance music while exploring socio-political, psychological and spiritual themes.

In September 2019, MINDSEED opened for hip-hop artist Tyga as part of the Unknown Calgary Fashion & Music Show at The Big Four Building.

During the COVID-19 lockdowns, Mindseed consistently wrote, recorded and released original songs every few weeks, establishing enough material to constitute their sophomore album Lockdown, released on February 26th, 2021.

Artistically, MINDSEED places emphasis on a strong sense of identity that is echoed throughout their music, visual art, and marketing.

Often compared to bands like System Of A Down, Twenty One Pilots, Tool, Mindless Self Indulgence, Eminem, Puscifer, A Perfect Circle, Rise Against, Rage Against the Machine
