Mimi’s latest project is brought to you under the name of her NY band “Rooster”, with whom she has been collaborating with for the past 2 years.  A blend of country meets punk, Rooster is inspired by the landscape of Brooklyn, writing songs about falling in love on the train, the downward spiral of Americanism as well as suicide.  Founding members include Joe Yoga , William Pearson, and Lou Cozza.  Rooster’s first EP is due to be released in the Winter 2017 and tour alongside friend and collaborator Sam Barron, and his new project “The Come On”, February 2017 in the Southern US states.
