Mike Maimone - Autobiography
I’m a piano player from Ashtabula, OH (where outside-of-Cleveland meets outside-of-Erie, PA).
In early 2008 I recorded Open Mic Nights, Empty Bottle Mornings at The I.V. Lab with Manny Sanchez, featuring Darren Garvey on drums and Brian Aiken on bass.
In January 2009 a friend introduced me to Company of Thieves, who needed a keyboard player for an appearance on Last Call with Carson Daily and a 2-month tour. Since then I've been spending most of my time on the road with this great Chicago band, supporting their Wind-Up Records debut, Ordinary Riches.
With a week of off-time from Company of Thieves this summer, I recorded some new songs at Stereophonic Studio and the IV Lab. Jon Alvin engineered, with Bob Buckstaff on bass and Chris Faller on drums. The resulting 4-track EP is called Pretty Pictures EP.
