Not long after the split of ‘None Intended’, Jan De Sorte (lead guitar) formed a new formation together with old friend and rhythm guitarist Joost Smet, young talent Yannick De Clerck (drums) and allrounder Mathijs Dhoey (bass). Around May 2005 the foursome from Beveren-Waas began writing and rehearsing their new material with intense motivation.
In the spring of 2006 they found their vocalist in JIM veejay Niko Van Driessche, who's five year contribution to pop punk band Nailpin earned him fame and recognition throughout the Belgian punk/rock scene. With its line-up finally set, 'Mid Air Collision' was founded.
April 2007: The band puts out a demo CD called 'Better safe than sorry' which contains 5 carefully crafted songs that came straight from the heart. They threw an awesome release party to celebrate their début in style!
The following summer Mid Air Collision recorded their first single ‘Temporary Living’. A kick ass music video was shot and released on national television. ‘Temporary Living’ received numerous airplay and conquered a five weeks lasting number one spot in the 'Puur Belgisch' charts!
During the fall of 2007 the rockers toured Belgium’s biggest media stores to promote the videogame ‘Jam Sessions’ by Ubisoft. This whole setup revolved around the mellow and heartfelt acoustic song 'Save Yourself', which can be found on the game's soundtrack.
In May 2008 the guys put out a brand new EP called "Dead men tell no tales". It contains a great variety of their finest material and earned them a steady fanbase.
A few months later they recorded their follow-up single ‘Man Vs. Hero’ at Oscar Holleman’s famous RS29 studio. After its release, ‘Man Vs. Hero’ gathered a great deal of enthusiasm and critical acclaim! JIM put the highly original music video in super rotation and aired a behind the scenes documentary of the video shoot in their lifestyle show ‘Spotlight’!
Second to that Mid Air Collision conquered a place at ‘Groezrock’, one of Belgium’s biggest alternative festivals! They shared the bill with awesome bands like NOFX, Taking back Sunday, Rise Against, Bullet for my Valentine and many more!
July 2009: The band released a new record called 'Rearrange the Past', which holds five new tracks of epic proportions!
