Waronker's first professional project was the indie group Walt Mink in 1990, which he formed at the age of 21 while attending Macalester College.

After eight years together, two major label record deals ( for a couple of years prior to their signing with Outpost they'd been signed to a deal with Elektra Records that never resulted in a release ), and only about a dozen live performances with their 10 piece live band ( which included Modern Drummer Magazine favorite Zach Danziger and former Walt Mink mastermind John Kimbrough ), Vaganza decided to call it a day.

By the end of the spring the members of Walt Mink pledged to pursue the goal of getting more club gigs in Minneapolis after going their separate ways over the summer.

Walt Mink continued to play in Minneapolis throughout the summer of 1991, garnering lots of local press and building a respectable fan base.

By the late spring of that year, with the success of the album Mellow Gold keeping him busy as Beck's drummer, Joey decided to leave Walt Mink.

In spite of an uplifting piece about the band in Billboard that day, in which it cheerfully asserted that after so many disappointments it seemed that Walt Mink was finally going to get a chance to be heard, the mood of the moment was one of deep uncertainty.

The spring of ' 96 was to be the last significant period of touring for Walt Mink.

Zach Danziger first appeared with Walt Mink on the June 20, 1997, broadcast of " Reverb ".

Armed with a ferocious new drummer, the reinvigorated members of Walt Mink began to contemplate a tour supporting Colossus.
