Blending Americana, folk, and roots rock, The Minor Pieces create a night of music that feels as good as that second, or maybe third drink. Soulful vocals and smooth guitar drive songs that feel both timeless and modern. They pull from a wide range of influences to find a sound that lives somewhere in the neighborhood of Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, The Red Clay Strays, and Wilco.
