GLACER MAGAZINE
Brief info

MindFree is a band from Los Angeles in USA. Their music is an original the Motown-Grunge sound, with melodic songs that are forward sounding and yet classic. From blistering bangers to honest ballads and pure pop to post grunge shoegaze, MindFree's songs get stuck in your mojo. The band consists of Keith Walsh on Keyboards, Ric Rosario on Drums, Cirilo Rios on Bass and Mark Abbruzzese on Guitar and Vocals.
MindFree started in 2018 when Mark Abbruzzese and Keith Walsh got together to create an original band inspired by their favorite artists. However, the roots of the band go back to the 1970s, when Abbruzzese and Walsh attended the same kindergarten in California and started playing together. With Abbruzzese on guitars and vocals (and that amazing pedal board) plus Walsh playing synth bass and keyboards, and Ric Rosario pounding the drums, MindFree has created a stunning sound that is simultaneously retro and modern. Now that the quarantine is lifting, don’t miss the chance to see their exhilarating performances and live shows.
