Melodic Mayhem Music is proud to announce the release of an exciting new modern rock band. Vocalist/Bassist Mick Rowe, Guitarist Phil Montfort, and Drummer Criss Wheeler- collectively known as Mindset 7-have been able to accomplish a lot in the very short time they have been together. Formed from the ashes of Mick's previous bands Goliath and Midnight Orchestra, Mindset 7 was created to play "good modern rock that has something for everyone" as Mick puts it. "We all grew up listening and playing different styles of music, we consider Mindset's sonic territory to include Bon Jovi, Goo Goo Dolls, Collective Soul, and Creed but with a nod to the melodic rock of the 80’s…
From Terre Haute, Indiana comes an exciting new modern rock band. Vocalist/Bassist Mick Rowe, Guitarist Phil Montfort, and Drummer Phil Hook- collectively known as Mindset 7-have been able to accomplish alot in the very short time they have been together. Formed from the ashes of Mick's previous bands Goliath and Midnight Orchestra, Mindset 7 was created to play "good modern rock that has something for everyone" as Mick puts it. "We all grew up listening and playing different styles of music, we consider Mindset's sonic territory to include Lifehouse,Goo Goo Dolls, and Creed but include a nod to the past heros of the 80's. We are not a retro band in the least, but we do not try to hide those ifluences, if we did, the music wouldn't be as honest".
An actively touring band, Mindset 7 has been able to share stages with some of Posi-music's rising stars. They have performed in almost every region in the U.S. picking up fans all along the way. Now with the international release "Blur", the doors are wide open for the new band. Guitarist Phil Montfort, a California transplant who graduated from the famed Guitar Institute in Hollywood, says "Touring and playing music is an amazing "job perk" to have. I love traveling so much! Meeting all sorts of people and getting to know them is something I don't take for granted." Phil H. says " I would echo Phil on that. I mean, we can drive all night with no sleep and be 100% wiped out, but the minute we hit that stage and I see a crowd of total strangers connecting with the music, it makes it all worthwhile! For that we are blessed."
When one hears Mindset 7 for the first time, they are reminded of a care-free time in their lives. It's almost impossible not to sing along. The band weaves musical portraits that relate to the young and the young at heart. Do yourself a favor, Check out the new CD "Blur" and be sure to catch them when they perform in a town near you.
