mi6, an explosive four piece punk rock band that hails from Lawrence, Kansas. Yeah! Kansas has punk rock too! Their catchy and infectious blend of hard-core and melodic punk mixed together with strong harmonies and high-energy performances gives this band a unique sound and flavor that almost anyone could enjoy. Kind-of a MidWest Coast Punk Rock Sound.
Kenny and Aaron established the band in January of 1997 along with their first drummer “Smok’n” Joe Weaver. After two years of belting out numerous songs, touring the Midwest, and opening for several bands such as: All, Good Riddance, Anti-Flag, Ten Foot Pole, The Teen Idols, The Crumbs, L7 and The Donnas they released their first self-titled 5 song EP, which is now a hard to find item.
In March of 1999, mi6 began experimenting with an additional guitarist to expand their creativity. David White was added to the trio and quickly broadened the bands sound while preserving their impact and power.
After Joe’s departure in June of 1998, Jason Meier filled in on drums until Jimmy Coles eventually joined the band in August of 1999 to complete this well rounded punk rock quartet.
The Band will be touring the country sometime in fall of 2000.
