The Mini Machines Guns

Listen to Mini Machines Gun's newest tracks from the album.
Mike Moerlins moved to Atlanta from Tallahassee, FL to go to Georgia Tech in 2001. Without much ambition (or time) to create a band, Mike was happy to play acoustic guitar in his dorm room when he could. Listening to the emo and pop punk bands that were popular at the time, Mike focused on learning to play as many songs as he could. Meanwhile, one-at-a-time, Mike and Dan Edwards and Eli Dickerson made their way from Georgetown, SC to Atlanta, GA. Childhood friends with a common interest in music, Eli, Dan and Mike formed the band, OBKB, with a unique blend of punk, rock and roll and gritty blues. In 2005, Mike Moerlins met Eli and was asked to fill in on rhythm guitar with OBKB. After playing with OBKB for a short while, Mike was introduced to the North Carolina "grunge-grass" band, The Avett brothers and developed a new love of energetic blue grass and folk music. At the same time, Mike was also filling in as lead guitarist for the acoustic southern rock band, Fernandina. Fitting in well with the acoustic music Mike had been used to playing, he used this as an inspiration to write some original songs. One or two songs quickly turned into nine or ten and Mike needed someone to help him make the songs great. He asked the guys from OBKB if they would provide the backup instrumentation that his songs needed and a new band was born. With Eli on bass, Dan on lead guitar and Mike Edwards on drums and backup vocals, they transformed from a plain-jane, one-person act, into the Mini Machine Guns. The Mini Machine guns will debut their first recorded album on September 4th, 2010.

Ryan Sheffield

Music has taken Ryan across the country and back and back again. It gives him more freedom than perhaps anything else in his life. The kind of freedom that liberates us from societal expectations. Because of music Ryan makes ’stupid’ choices and gives ‘irresponsible’ advice and in turn frees us. It’s harder to separate a performing artist from his work than say an author. Even though a musician still makes a finished product, a recording that thrives independently, each performance is a remaking of the music and himself. However, it is the consistency within each remaking where the musician is identified. Ryan’s simple song writing is lyrically driven. He openly reveals himself in attempts to move past himself and make it something more. He is not attached to a single style but his sound tributes past eras and places within its own discoveries. Ryan is not a musician because it comes easy to him, sometimes it seems that the songs torture him. Ryan is a fighter.
