MiG Ayesa was born in Manila, Philippines, but when he was 2 years old his family moved to Sydney, Australia. MiG grew up there, and was on his way to a Communications degree from Macquarie University in Sydney.But at the age of 20, MiG landed an opportunity that propelled his life onto a very different course: he was offered the role of Ritchie Valens in the Australian production of the musical "Buddy." With his powerful voice and exotic good looks, MiG was a natural for the role, so he put his studies on hold while he toured with "Buddy" all over Australia.After gaining further repute in Australia with successes in theater, commercials, TV, film and music, MiG made his next big leap in 2002, this time to London, ready to take his electrifying stage presence and robust voice to an even bigger stage. He quickly found another starring role in a rock-based show, this time in the Queen musical, "We Will Rock You." MiG proved to be so commanding in the role of Galileo that original Queen guitarist Brian May took an interest in his work, and they have now initiated their own collaboration.Now, MiG feels ready to make the biggest leap of all -- to international superstardom. Between his ability to master different rock styles and his ongoing need to create his own original music (with bands Randy Badass & The Slickmaster Five, Lovetown and The Riva Band).
