My name is Mikey Lurid. I've been writing songs and playing in punk, indie, and garage pop rock bands most of my life. I moved to Jacksonville a little more than a year ago from Atlanta to go to rehab. I just got out. I'M TOTALLY cleaner now and more soberish! No bit seriously I'm doing really well and have decided to re-enter society and I need a band to record and play all these songs I've spent the last year writing. Not to mention the 100 others I have in my back pocket ... But I also wouldn't be opposed to being in someone else's thing just to add what I can on guitar and backing harmonies. Gimme a trial run. I'll grip it and rip it!
