about

Raised in Miami, FL Rachel Mintz began writing songs at 8 years old. She would record full vocal compositions on a handheld tape recorder. Rachel grew up in a musical family with both her brother and father also being musicians. She went on to perform in a professional children’s choir touring and sharing stages with the world’s best choirs. Her awarded director Timothy Sharp said “Rachel has one of the most unique voices I’ve ever heard.”

Rachel moved to Los Angeles in 2004 and began her music career leading the bands Pigs (Dave Sender of Union 13) and Baxter House. After a long hiatus, Mintz embarked on her solo journey connecting with Grammy winner Ian Cross (Usher, Gwen Stefani, Janet Jackson, Lauryn Hill). The two began a musical collaboration committed to excellence thus birthing the immaculately produced EP shed a tear.

Shed a tear has been a long awaited project painstakingly created by a team of super stars including but not limited to Shane Smith (Dirty Projectors, Los Lobos, Robert Francis), Blake Harden (Sza, Travis Scott, Juice Wrld, Kendrick Lamar), and legendary mastering engineer Howie Weinberg.
