Today MINOE returns with infectious new single ‘Cut Me Loose’.

Listen HERE

Arriving as an injection of empowering disco-euphoria, Cut Me Loose is written for anyone who has ever been their own bully. Confessional lyricism teamed with thumping bass and explosive energy makes this fresh cut a bite-back moment for your inner saboteur.  

Throughout the hypnotic dance track, we hear Minoe speaking to herself - begging to be "cut loose" from her own unrealistic expectations. As a lover of escapism and using dance as a coping mechanism, Minoe's goal is to invite listeners to her party, where crying at the club is not only allowed but encouraged and everybody is welcome on the dancefloor.

Written by Minoe herself, "Cut me loose" has an incredible team of creatives behind it. Producer Kevin Figs is a platinum, Juno-nominated producer who has previously collaborated with big names such as Zara Larsson, Jerimih, Danileigh, Tove Lo, and more. The track has been mixed and mastered by Ghislain "Gee" Brind'Amour, a Juno award-winning engineer who’s known for a killer ear and an impressive track record.

Cut Me Loose follows Minoe’s stellar recent single ‘Cherry’. Arriving last month it saw the rising Canadian pass the mic to her inner saboteur. Sultry, raw, and catchy as hell it scooped much support at press from the likes of The Line of Best Fit who called it a ‘a seductive, cage-rattling anthem’. Cherry also bagged a great sweep across DSPs with additions from playlists such as Fresh Finds, It’s a Bop, and more! Listen to Cherry HERE

Born in Nova Scotia, and now based in Montreal, MINOE has been making a name for herself with her soulful songwriting and alt-pop sound. Fusing elements of disco and pop with more dark and alternative moments, MINOEs sound is the perfect vessel for her honest, empowering, and cathartic songwriting. 

Growing up in a troubled home, MINOE took to songwriting at a very young age to understand, process, and cope with her trauma. Her goal is to provide a safe space for her listeners to heal, dance, and find common ground.

Since launching in 2019, MINOE has put out an increasingly diverse body of work, evolving and scooping more recognition with each release. Her work has been supported by the likes of Complex CA, The Line of Best Fit, Variance, Rolling Stone, Cult MTL, Okayplayer, and more while racking up over 300,000 streams. Not to mention over 3 million likes on TikTok.

With live performance playing a big part in who MINOE is, she’s already performed at Montreal Jazz Festival, opened for Tom Grannan, and Dadi Freyr, and sold out her first headline show in Toronto. Releasing thanks to the help of the Factor JSR grant, MINOE is a force to be reckoned with. Giving nods to female greats such as Lana Del Rey, Kimbra, and Banks, MINOE’s here with her own spin, dripping in empowerment and queer liberation.

With lots more music on the way this year, MINOE is someone to keep all eyes on.
