Artist History
in july of 2001, miggs released a DIY CD, Anyway and began to play anywhere for anyone. This led to their 100+ dates at most every Borders and Barnes & Noble from Sacramento to Los Angeles, where they've sold over 1,500 CDs and are now nationally stocked throughout Borders, based on the success of the sales. This "acoustic tour" has put the focus squarely on the songs and the response has been great. Now, playing about 12 shows a month, both electric and acoustic and getting support from companies like Jagermeister, ADK Microphones and ToOpHat Amps, Miggs are working hard writing and playing in hopes of getting to the next level. |
