Ingrid and the Ministers New Album 'Boofhead'

Kia ora whānau!

Thank you for checking out our Boosted page.

HERE'S WHAT'S GOING ON:

We have a second album ready to be recorded and we're calling it 'Boofhead'!

Developed over the last year and a half, these 8 bluesy punk-rock tracks are a raw exploration of a young woman's struggle to make ends meet in a city (Wellington) she can't afford to live in. The songs stretch from the personal to the political, taking a frank look at issues of shame, trauma, male privilege and the housing crisis.

WHY THIS ALBUM?

YOUR SUPPORT WILL GET US THERE!

We're pouring all our band money into this project - approximately $2,500 - but need more to cover the costs of renting The Surgery studio in Wellington and paying Toby Lloyd (Tiny Triumph Recordings) to produce the album.

Your money will go directly towards:

• studio hire
• recording
• producing
• mixing
• mastering

You will be contributing to creating a world-class quality album of kiwi music and helping our awesome local music industry stay afloat during these hard times.

A BIT ABOUT US

The band is made up of Ingrid Saker (guitar, vocals), Seamus Johnson (lead guitar), Scott Maynard (bass) and Kim Andrews (drums). We've been gigging around Wellington for the last few years, appearing in festivals like Garden's Magic, Cuba Dupa and Newtown Festival, and releasing one previous album, "Kill The Sights".

Tiny Triumph Recordings is a recording studio run by Wellington based Music Producer Toby Lloyd. He has been fortunate enough to work in some of the best recording studios in the country and work with the likes of Shapeshifter, Hollie Smith, Stan Walker, Rob Ruha, Nightmares on Wax, Ladi6, Warren Maxwell, Louis Baker, Dr Reknaw, Sea Mouse, Israel Starr, Jermaine Clements and MaraTK as well as working in the film industry as an ADR/Sound Recordist on films like The Hobbit Trilogy, Mortal Engines and Hunt For The Wilderpeople.

Thank you so much for your time and support! Let's make this happen!

Arohanui,

Ingrid
