Starlight Mints Gear Up for Tour

Give your breath long-lasting freshness

Norman, Oklahoma's Starlight Mints are about to embark on a U.S. tour which will take them through the better part of September. Still riding the wave from last year's wonderful The Dream That Stuff Was Made Of, this quintet's blend of quirky pop spans the gambit from Bowie to fellow Oklahomans the Flaming Lips. While no information has been released regarding a new album, chances are that the band's up to something, considering the acclaim of last year's record.
