Fare Inspector - The New Single

“Fare Inspector” is a fast, charged critique of Toronto’s transit cops, calling out the way fines hit the most vulnerable while doing nothing to fix broken systems. Blending chaos, speed, and satire, The Bare Minimum turn frustration into an anthem for anyone hustling to get home.

The Band

Rising out of the underground Toronto punk scene, the Bare Minimum channel but subvert skate-punk into something new. Equally at home at a DIY basement show or festival stage, the Bare Minimum embrace the chaotic nature of punk shows emphasizing energy over precision. The band is also actively involved in promoting the local scene; self-releasing a documentary about a local DIY venue, interviewing their scene peers on social media, curating playlists, and working with local non-profits. The Bare Minimum have played Pouzza Fest, Canadian Music Week, and NXNE; and shared the stage with Meat Wave, No Fun At All, and Adrenalized.
