"Laurel was the person we immediately thought of when we needed clean vocals on our record. It was definitely very different than anything she had done but it didn't phase her at all. With minimal direction she was able to come up with melodies, harmonies and completely nailed down the vibe of our record without issue. We'd go back to her every time. Not to mention she is the kindest and most caring individual. She will care about you and your music"

​

Laurel Minnes is a Niagara-based film, stage and voice actor, vocalist, ukulelist, songwriter an composer/arranger. She has provided her voice for musical collaborations, radio ads and jingles, as as performed in various musical stage productions, as well as short films.

​

Minnes has collaborated with genre-spanning Juno- and Polaris-nominated artists, from wistful indie-folk group Great Lakes Swimmers to epic heavy-metal duo Vile Creature – the latter for which she received a Juno nod for her choral arrangements.

Her musical project Minuscule harnesses the power of a 15-piece all-female choir and an eclectic backing band to create a powerful new form of introspective pop. Their debut album “Great”  secured Minnes’ recognition as Songwriter of the Year at the Niagara Music Awards and has had various tracks featured on CBC Music.
