Mind Priorities releases debut album

More than 100 young fans turned out for the debut album launch of Brisbane Waters Secondary College Woy Woy Campus band Mind Priorities at the Erina Youth Centre on May 22.

Band members Liam Scarratt, Daniel Thompson, Andy Clews and Daniel Scarratt have been playing music and writing songs together for more than two years resulting in their debut album As Seen On TV.

The band has performed in many local competitions and events including Kool Skools in 2007, the Central Coast Going Off At The Swamp (GOATS) festival and Youth Week festival.

Mind Priorities also performed at this year's Sydney Royal Easter Show.

It was able to put together its first album after winning studio time with Caravan Records after becoming finalists in last year's Battle of the Bands competition.

The band puts their music influences down to The Living End, Muse, After The Fall and The Who.

Publicity officer Ms Kerry Scarratt said Mind Priorities had a string of well-crafted and unique songs in their repertoire.

"Mind Priorities started out as a covers band performing songs by their favourite artists but soon realised they had their own creative talent to explore," Ms Scarratt said.

"The songwriting chemistry between the boys soon emerged and they have gone from strength to strength."
