Bio & Experience of Mike the Drummer

My myspace page  
Ok, everyone on earth seems to have a myspace page,
and all my musoid buddies told me it's great for networking,
so I decided to set one up.... tell you what, I'm sold.

It's so quick and easier to update-- MUCH easier than this domain site!
So, while I'll do periodic updates to mikedrums.com,
my myspace page will be much more up to date and
even include some blogging.

 

Played on American Idol II contestant Joanna Martino's album, recorded at the Sound Kitchen. I don't know when it will come out or what label she will be signed with, but it was some pretty good stuff and the girl can sing.

There were some very smokin players on the session, including Chris Donahue on bass, Charlie Judge on keys, and Gary Burnett & Trey Hill on guitars. Drew Cline did a fantastic job as producer.

I use Ableton Live to run backing tracks, loops, "guide" tracks, etc, for stage performance. I can easily import all the individual tracks from your album master mix files, program loops & grooves, or sample sounds on the fly to customize your concert performance.



Michael O'Brien
Having left the group Newsong, Michael has some great new music, plans for a new solo album, and lots of exciting plans for the near future. Check my myspace page for dates on which I'll be backing him up.
