Hi everyone. Here's something a little different! Rich, Benn, Simon, Nat and Andy are all Trevs alumni from 1998-2002. Whilst at college they had a little rock band going, called "Mint". They played gigs all over Durham and especially at Trevs Unplugged, bops and balls, sports dinners, and at Mildert Jam Night. Although the original band broke up in 2002, three of them played together for several years following, and they have now got back together online to bring you this music video. The song is a cover of a Paul Weller track, "Out Of The Sinking". It is one of the first songs they played together as a band. Their album "Leaving It Late" is still available to download for free from Bandcamp or Soundcloud - just search for "themintrockband". They are a great reminder of how Trevs students and alumni rock harder than any other college!

Thanks,

Rich and the boys "Mint"

Our version of the Paul Weller classic "Out Of The Sinking", from the 1995 album Stanley Road. This version has been boosted in the drum and bass department ...
