Chicago's Mint Mile returns with Roughrider, a richly textured rock record released in February 2024 on Comedy Minus One. Anchored by Tim Midyett's distinctive baritone guitar work — a style he has been refining since his days in Silkworm and Bottomless Pit — the album showcases a band firing on all cylinders, with contributions from an impressive ensemble of musicians including pedal steel guitarist Justin Brown, violinist Susan Voelz, cellist Alison Chesley, and a full complement of piano, organ, horns, and reeds.
Roughrider is a carefully crafted record that rewards close listening, recorded and mixed at Chicago's legendary Electrical Audio studio. Standout moments include the album-opening "Sunbreaking," the Crazy Horse-influenced sprawl of "Halocline," and the haunting closing track "I Hope It's Different," which features a guest vocal performance from Nina Nastasia — a deeply resonant collaboration that gives the album an unforgettable and emotionally weighty finale.
