After spend a few years without playing with a band Yvon was very anxious, to get back
in the game. On his return to China at the end of 2004, He was on a mission to form a
new, all-original band. Soon after his arrival, he hooked up with a bass player named
Huang Hong Liang.
Together, the duo rehearsed without a drummer
until Yvon heeded the call to join another
established band with bass player Billy Ren that
where playing in various nightclubs. Thus
ended the partnership between Yvon and
Huang, but only temporarily.
Kicking things off with a
massive outdoor show in
Chengdu In 2007 the band
decided it was time to record
their debut Album.
. Yvon's new band, freshly named M.I.C., later released a self-titled
album in 2008. With the help of keyboardist Mark Macleod (U.S.A) the
main tracks were recorded within a few weeks, but it was a year
before Additional overdubs and mixing were complete. At last, all the
patience and hard work paid off as the album, "M.I.C.", saw the light of
Day in October 2008
The album features different styles ranging from Straight Rock & Roll to Melodic Grunge. In addition to the Mix of North American
and Chinese influences in the project, an international lineup of special guests from Japan, U.S.A., Malaysia and Sweden are
included as well.
Soon after this was accomplished, however, Yvon still had the momentum
to start another project. This idea was met with little enthusiasm by the
members of M.I.C., so Yvon ended up turning the idea on his old friend
Huang.
Within a few weeks the band had nailed down 13 of Yvon's new songs and played their first show without a hitch. M.I.C. was re-born.
M.I.C. is still growing into everything that a band should be. This exciting, new brand of music brings twists, turns, and high- energy
performances that will make your trip to see them worthwhile!
You can expect to see their new CD recorded an released in 2009.
The thought of recording a new album was met by much enthusiasm by
Huang and as a result an old partnership was reformed.After finding a
drummer in Zhao Quin the band was complete. They hit the pavement
running and started rehearsals immediately.
