Jonny Yen has been putting music into the world since the late '90s. The Jonny Yen collective is always me (Steve M.), along with other contributors. So far I've worked with my former bandmates 'Mojo' Hamilton (Bass), 'The Dingo' (Drums and Guitars) and DJ Long (Programming).
Back in the day I played guitars live both as a band member (Loose End) and a solo artist. Live shows covered alt rock, folk rock, grunge, and punk. I played several times at the Talking Heads (Southampton, UK) -- including their monthly showcase -- and at the George Inn (Andover, UK). I think the showcase gig was the highlight, everything just clicked that night. More recently I've been playing drums (Hoarfrost/Set in Stone) and we've gigged a few times.
