There are two brothers, these two men, affined and bound by blood did form a band, and that band is MIND CANARY.

About a year ago our sister was wed, in a chapel. During the reception a small few of the giant congregation migrated to the outdoors to JAM! Conal started playing 'Goin out west' by 'Tom Waits' and Jake bashed some plastic trash bins with logs, it was sounding brutal. After passing around a few acoustics and mixing it up on our make-do drum kit (2 bins) the jam was a success. Everybody drank and ate and went to sleep and that was the end of it...UNTIL! A few days after the wedding (Clearly we both needed time to ingest what was about to happen) Conal suggested that we sounded rehearsed and we should start a band. In a bedroom in our mums house the first of the songs were played and decided over. We had about a handful of songs and excitement in our bones.
