Mint Mile is a rock group based in Chicago, Illinois, founded in 2014 by Tim Midyett of Silkworm and Bottomless Pit, with Jeff Panall of Songs: Ohia on drums. Matthew Barnhart (Tre Orsi), engineer of the recordings from day one, added bass guitar to his duties soon after, and Justin Brown (Palliard) joined up on pedal steel and guitar in 2016.
The band is rooted in a shifting amalgam of classic rock, post-punk, blues, folk-rock, and country with bits of glam and modern experimental music drifting to the surface.
With three 4-song EPs to open their offerings, Mint Mile produced a sprawling double album (is there any other kind?) called Ambertron in March of 2020, with the fresh, tight forty minutes of Roughrider continuing their run in eminently fine style.
