"MindsAlike takes pride in being an Australian original band with a difference; we believe our songwriting is the core to our being . . . . . . "

With a solid, hard-edged style of rock "MindsAlike" brings it home with awesome riffs, intricate guitar solos, strong vocals and tight gutsy rock melodies.

On 2nd June 2006, MindsAlike were the main support to Shifter (signed AU band) at the OXFAM CHALLENGE CHARITY CONCERT at the Q.U.T. Guild Bar in Brisbane. Three weeks later on the 29th June 06, the M.A. boys turned heads at THE ZOO when they supported a local CD Launch. 1st July 06 MindsAlike was one of the final seven runners up from an original selection of over sixty bands in the "ROCK OFF FINALS - Gold Coast Battle of the Bands held at Pacific Pines Tavern on the Gold Coast, Queensland.

M.A. also joined the line-up to support signed Australian bands, Japunga and Sunk Loto, at the PULSE FESTIVAL 06 staged at QUT Guild Bar (Brisbane) on 29 July 06. Then on 12th August 06 the band was one of the main players in helping to achieve a "SELL-OUT" show at The Living Room in Brisbane when they supported local hip hop/rock act 'No Filter' for their Debut CD Launch.

MindsAlike formed in May 2005 and since the release of their self-produced EP Rebirth Of A Way ten months later in March 2006, the band has been supported with Brisbane radio airplay courtesy of community radio station 4ZZZ (102.1FM) and Brisbanes' BayFM 100.3.

With very encouraging sales of the EP at their live shows, M.A. has now included distribution via Brisbane music stores Rockinghorse, Skinnys and Replay CDs as well as Gold Coast stores Head Hi Music (Burleigh Heads) and Rare Groove Records (Nobby Beach).

"M.A.'s music reflects an immense smorgasbord of influences ~ from Motley Crue to Michael Jackson ~ from the Blues Brothers to Pantera; we love it all. Obviously hard rock takes the stage when it comes to M.A. but it's great to hear what each of us can bring to our songs. A cultivation of sounds we'd each never have considered before, has come to life in this band" (Sean Dunne ~ MindsAlike).

Meanwhile, this productive quartet are working hard behind the scenes to procure their new collection of songs for the next recording that promises to be something very special.
