All Genres > Pop > Quirky > THE MIGS: The MiGs

This is The MiGs' debut CD. Hailed by Southern California's Campus Circle Magazine as one of the “most memorable debuts” for 2000. This is an eclectic band comprised of an odd cast of players wielding such diverse musical ingredients as Latin percussion, theremin, analog synths and testosterone heavy weird surf guitars. The result is never a dull moment. Top it off with a track featuring DJ Bonebrake of the LA punk band X on Marimba (Muchacha #3).

Founded by Bernard Yin the MiGs crew is also comprised of Kevin Lee: Theremin/Synths, Derrick Anderson: Bass, John Lacques: Drums, Rick Deliz: Guitars, Roy Staley: Drums, Tim Depala: Bass, Eric Elbogen: Bass and a host of other esteemed LA freaks.


Bernard's presence in LA has been highlighted by his involvement in such bands (chronologically): Samba Hell (Lollapalooza '92), Spindle (Interscope Records), Medicine (American Recordings), Permanent Green Light (Island Records), Brazil 2001 (numerous surf videos and films), The Glitter Panthers (featuring members of Extra Fancy and the Geraldine Fibbers), Sex With Lurch and now the MiGs. You might also find him from time to time as a fave hired gun or doing one-off recordings such as the legendary Monk With Gun session with Stephen Perkins (Jane's Addiction, Banyan) and Dan Shulman (Garbage). The MiGs' Roy Staley was the drummer for infamous prop-rock band: Green Jello. Rick Deliz's band Satelite has made a mark in the LA Rock en Español scene and tours Puerto Rico periodically. Derrick Anderson is a recognized talent in the LA pop scene and fronts the Andersons as well as plays bass in Slow Motorcade.
