   The Brain Waves: General Info
Member Since10/10/2006
Band Websitewww.mikesmusic.biz
Band MembersCurrently: Mike - Pat - Johnny - Rob -

Mike writes the music, plays guitar, mando and sings. Pat plays lead guitar, uke and banjo, Johnny is our shiny new Drummer, and Rob, a fellow kiwi, grooves out those cool bass lines. Nice.

Honourable mention to Geoff and Karl who gave sterling service on bass and percussion. and a big headsup to Dylan who, among other things played a fine lead guitar on the current single "Knocknaheeny girl". Also to Christian who played with us on fiddle (I think I am allowed to call it that!) and mandolin. We might also mention that the fine drummer on the zen master clip is none other than the talented mr Karl Downes.

For a while it was just me, Kiwi Mike.

Original line up: Mike - Andy - Colm - Wavy Davy

Rab and Paul the aussie also helped out recently. Many thanks guys.

   About The Brain Waves
There is some bio stuff on my website somewhere. The link on the left of this page was wrong for about a 8 months but no one seemed to notice. Thats a worry - not.

I'll put the link to mikesmusic.biz here for y'all who actually read this stuff now that I have the syntax right.

More bio to come when I remember to get it from the lads..

we've been working away on our new EP and it's finally finished. it's called
"who are those pretty girls? they drink like sailors"

it has 5ive songs on it. 4 about girls and 1 about jesus
(but jesus is probably just a metaphor for girls...)

we'll post tracks up on friday (we'll send a bulletin to remind you!)
and we launch the EP at Cypress Avenue, cork on Sunday 15 April at 9pm

it'd be great to see ya. us, a great band called Random Friend Selecter
and an amazing american songwriter called Robert Blake

Hi Mike,

I tried to play the Chavez video, but no dice. Thanks for getting in touch and letting us know about the Lobby. It's a shame, but time never stands still, and the clock has demanded a tapas bar to take you back to your Spanish romance.. on the terraces at Valencia.. facing the pigs..

Just very pleased I'm not a Chelsea fan, in fact, they should lose, purely for diluting human currency.

So there, you have it.. from the horse's mouth,

Ne.e.e...e..e..y
