Neil Minet loves performing almost as much as he loves adventuring in solitude. Born, raised, and currently working in rural, upstate New York, Neil is a singer-songwriter and guitarist on a never ending search for the right sound, the right word, and the right story. He enjoys playing small listening rooms as much as he enjoys large stages and as a listener first, finds his purpose in making music that can give back some small sliver of the joy he’s experienced from it himself. His earliest roots are in the blues, his earliest guitar lessons in folk/Americana, and his earliest gigs playing bluegrass and rock ‘n roll. Somewhere between those genres is where Neil began his journey. His final destination: unknown.

“I couldn’t overcome feeling I’d been dropped into the novel world of Cormac McCarthy’s gritty western fiction meets pure Southern Gothic. Lyrics are imbued with a straightforward clarity and darkness. Melodies echo universal hard-scrabble characters and striking vistas….You can nearly feel the fading heart, the grieving, the loss, the warm fluids running across cold fingers.” - Refueled Magazine
