“The Minnikins bring a grandiosity and cinematic sweep to their country-folk stylings.
Forget any notions of rivalry within the Manc music community; whenever Ruth and Gabriel Minnikin are around, that loving family feeling just seems to spread.
Born and raised in Nova Scotia, Canada, the Minnikin siblings had something of a liberal, artistic-leaning upbringing.
On account of a classical music-loving family, Ruth was taking piano lessons by the age of eight, while Gabriel quickly showed a natural gift for guitar.
Alongside their joint work as The Minnikins, the pair have released numerous solo albums, while Ruth also works as a prolific artist and photographer.
…we’re constantly evolving our sound. And as long as all these great musicians keep inviting us to work with them, we’ll keep saying yes.”
