The band formed in 2004, in the same year that Gabe Condon, then 12 years old, won WHAM-13's "Most Talented Kid" contest by singing and playing guitar.¹

The drummer, Ray DeSalvo, began playing drums at age 4. DeSalvo's father played in a Rochester band called "Blue Axis" in the 1980's.

The third member of Mint Jam, Matthew, is Gabe Condon's younger brother.

In 2008, Gabe Condon was awarded an "Outstanding Performance" award from Downbeat Magazine.²
