The Minors were a pop group formed by Roger Brasell in 1962 while he was at the Wanganui Technical College. The band did Shadows / Ventures style instrumentals, and began doing vocals when the Beatles influenced the scene. They did gigs around the lower North Island region, which included the Top Hat Ballroom in Napier, Wellington Town Hall "Surfin' Hops", youth clubs and church dances. They used to travel around in a big old De Soto with a trailer for the gear in tow. With help of parents and friends, they ran their own Saturday dances in Wanganui's AMDRAM Hall.
