Super Seeds

I went to The Mint last night expecting to see The Filthies, but found out shortly after arriving that they are playing Saturday night. Another band, called Seed, was outside playing instead. Keep in mind, these are free shows. VERY rarely does The Mint attempt to charge people to come in. Nine times out of ten, when I walk out to the patio to see band at The Mint, I turn around and walk back in again. Last night I stayed.

I was really impressed with Seed’s sound but I don’t think I am hip enough to describe it accurately. I don’t want to say anything that will come back to haunt me or them, so I’ll just say they sounded great. It is the first local band I’ve seen in a long time (wait – ever?) with a keyboardist. There are four guys in the band and I spoke to the lead singer, Chris, briefly after the show.

I’ve been thinking of adding a “Bake Interview” feature to the blog so hopefully I will be able to speak to him next week and let him tell you about Seed.
