Mic Christopher

Michael "Mic" Christopher (21 September 1969 – 29 November 2001) was an Irish singer-songwriter, best known for his posthumously-released debut album Skylarkin'.

In 1990, Christopher formed the band The Mary Janes[2] with former Kila bass player and fellow busker Karl Odlum, and added Simon Good on guitar and Steven Hogan on drums.

In 1996 the band acquired the drumming talents of Australian Mark Stanley, with this line-up recording their second album, Sham, in 1998.

In 2001, having recovered from a bad motorbike accident, Christopher released his solo Heyday EP and announced that he would be supporting The Waterboys on their next tour.

[5] That night, after he had played his set supporting The Waterboys, Christopher was found unconscious, having apparently struck his head on some steps during an accidental fall.
