Good Morning #Canada
#HappyBirthday to Benjamin Mink, born January 22, 1951, in Detroit, Michigan. He became a Canadian after he moved with his parents to Toronto at age 11. He is likely one of Canada’s least known musical talents despite his long career as a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer. His industry connections are extensive as he has produced and/or performed with K.D Lang, Barenaked Ladies, Anne Murray, Dan Hill, Mendelson Joe, Prairie Oyster, Raffi, Jane Siberry, Ian and Sylvia Tyson, Valdy, Bruce Cockburn, Murray McLauchlan, Mick Jagger, Susan Aglukark, Methodman, Alison Krauss, Feist, Daniel Lanois, Sarah McLachlan, Roy Orbison, Elton John, and Heart.
Despite releasing only one album under his own name, Mink has multiple Juno, Genie, Gemini, and Grammy Awards.
