HELLO CONTROL

HELLO CONTROLJanuary 2008

While working together as quality control for a guitar line, Ryan Hayden and Mikey Lemieux had a lot of time to figure out a perfect band. They had been talking about it for almost a year when everything fell into place. In comes Milo Marnes, exactly what they envisioned as vocals.

After a get together with Ryan and Milo, they knew this was something special. As the first song was in the works, they realized that Milo's longtime friend Garry McShane would fit the bill as bass player. So it was settled, or so they thought. After recording a couple of songs in Albany with Tim Lynch at the Recording Company, Ryan contacted his best friend Andrew Stortz.

It was time to step everything up, so Andrew joined in on keyboards and extra guitar. The sound was complete. After finishing up five songs in Albany, the band is about ready to release their first CD and start playing shows.
