Here is some info about the Band

Mike's principal present musical project is the collection of souls better known as The Brain Waves. Currently there are four to five playing members of this little collective but honourable mention must go to our dedicated friends and backing vocalists. On a historical note we might mention that The Brain Waves were formed upon the wreckage of an earlier collective known as The Junkyard Explosion. This rarely seen group were a little too fond of breakdancing together and general carousing to ever get about any actual combined musical expression. We did have a myspace page but this was manfully taken over by The Brain Waves at the appropriate time. In no particular order the band members at present are:

  • Me: I play guitar and mando and sing.
  • KBV: bass guitar and vocalist.
  • Pat: Banjo, Mandolin, ukelele, guitar and vocalist.
  • Karl: Drums

The role of honour of past members looks like this:

  • Johnnie: Drums and plastic versions thereoff
  • Rob: bass guitar
  • Karl Glass: All manner of percussive and rhythymic expression and singing as well.
  • Dylan Kelly: Standing and outstanding lead guitar and vocalist
  • Christian Martin: lead violin and mandolin on at least one famous occasion.
  • Andy Wilson: Vocal and moral support.
  • Rab: Outrageous introductions and vocals.
  • Colm: Breakdancing and friendship
  • Davy: More of the same.
