The Band -
Miranda, with 6 years of classical training and musical theater experience. Opening for Sammy Kershaw back in 2010 was an experience she will never forget. Miranda is totally amped to bring back the good stuff with her homeboys, the M80s.
'Len, The Axe' studied guitar at Michigan State University under Gerald Klickstein, who currently directs the Peabody Conservatory’s Music Entrepreneurship and Career Center at Johns Hopkins University. The Axe has performed for audiences from Traverse City, Michigan to Key West, Florida and he takes pride in performances that “sound just like the record!”
Drew 'The Bass-Melter' Garrison - With a passion for punk and heavy metal paired with a few years of classical training, Drew brings the perfect balance of raw power and finesse to the M80s. Born in the greatest decade of all time (the 80s, DUH!), it’s apparent that the spirit lives on through his performance and persona. He possesses an undying love for the “transference of energy” between the music and the people.
Jeff (Drums) - Years of drumming experience in many different genres and in a wide range of settings has led Jeff back to the "heart of rock 'n' roll" and to the M80s. Jeff can unleash his funky side along with his pop and metal sides, all in one band! Playing a vintage North drum set and incorporating electronic drums in to the mix lends a little bit of authenticity to the M80s sound.
This event is sponsored by the Michigan Humanities Council and the Friends of the Hamburg Township Library.
If the weather is inclement we will hold the concert indoors at the Hamburg Township Senior and Community Center Building next to the Library.
