BIO/HISTORY:
Known to perform multiple instruments on many records he produces, Mikal is an artist himself. By age 14, Mikal knew every lyric, chord, melody and harmony to every Beatles' song. His obsession with music inspired him to pursue his music career at an early age. By sixteen, he was playing the tough Northeast England club circuit and earned recognition as the youngest band to make the final four of the televised "Band of the North" competition.
After graduating The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts (LAMDA) with honors, Mikal left England for a solo tour. After performing primarily in the Greek islands and Austrian Alps, Mikal pursed his career in the United States. Settling in Aspen, Colorado, Mikal formed a band that became the resident band at the infamous China Club and signed his first record deal with Alesis. Mikal later formed another band "Opium" and signed to A&M Records. Mikal also joined forces with "Porno for Pyros" Peter DiSteffano forming the band "15Mg" and signed another recording agreement with immergent Records. Mikal's solo album produced by "Five For Fighting's" Curt Schneider will be also released by immergent Records in April 2008. For more information about Mikal's solo album and performances, visit his artist page www.myspace.com/mikalbluemusic or contact Artist Management: Anita Heilig @ [email protected].
REVOLVER RECORDINGS, INC.
Inspired by his love of collecting vintage musical instruments and recording gear and a constantly booked production schedule, Mikal owns a two thousand square foot studio known as "Revolver Studios" located just north of Los Angeles in Westlake Village, CA.

In addition to an impressive selection of instruments, Revolver Studios contains the highest quality vintage analog and most current digital equipment. Just a few pieces of unique gear housed there are the classic 56 channel Neve 8128, used to record many Grammy winning records including Michael Jackson's "Thriller", classic tube microphones including Neumann U47 and M49s and a Studer A827 2 inch 24 track tape machine. Revolver Recordings is also equipped with two of the latest high definition Pro-Tools digital recording gear and digital workstations including top of the line Protools HD Accel 3 with 32 discreet inputs and outputs to the console.
