Austin-based soul & funk outfit, Mingo Fishtrap, has released EP3.
This follow-up to the 2005 release, Yesterday, marks a refinement of form forthe band; delving deeper into the sound of Stax, Motown and Chess that
inspired the band's inception over a decade ago. The five tracks pave the
way for Mingo's next full-length CD, due the first quarter of 2009.

Mingo Fishtrap was formed in the mid-90s at the University of North Texas'
prestigious College of Music. EP3 is the band's fifth CD release. Most
recently, the band had released Mingo Fishtrap: Live at the Granada, a live
performance DVD available on Manor Productions.

The release of EP3 coincided with a summer U.S. tour in 2008. The band brought its high-energy live show to venues across the country kicking it off with a headlining performance for over 8000 fans at the Sweet Pea Festival in Bozeman, MT. As an actively touring, independent artist, Mingo Fishtrap has enjoyed documented airplay in over 40 U.S. markets, and several international markets (France, Great Britain, Germany, Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Hong Kong and New Zealand).
