Fly Below The Radar

"Easily one of the best records you'll hear this year!"
- Jakob Dylan, The Wallflowers

"One of the best bands I've ever seen!"
- Pete Yorn

Formed in London in the mid-90s, Minibar plied their trade in old Blighty for a few years before deciding to relocate to Los Angeles, where they recorded their debut album 'Road Movies' with producer T-Bone Burnett. While 'Road Movies' had the wide-eyed vision of a newcomer, 'Fly Below The Radar', produced by Dusty Wakeman (Lucinda Williams), Rami Jaffee and Greg Richling (both of The Wallflowers), follows up with a stellar leap both musically and lyrically.

Filled with soaring, rootsy grace and timeless West Coast style harmonies, this album effortlessly captures the beauty and darkness of the jagged Californian landscape. Comparisons could be drawn with Wilco, Gram Parsons, a less polished sounding Wallflowers, perhaps Neil Young and a strange mix of British pop from Elvis Costello to the Beatles to Oasis.

Greg Johnson utilized the services of Minibar's rhythm section for his most recent album, the critically acclaimed 'Here Comes The Caviar', and shades of Johnson's material can be heard within 'Fly Below The Radar'.
