BIO:
Mimi is best known as lead vocalist for the original power-pop group Pezband, for whom the phrase was coined. In addition to critically acclaimed albums, his was the first US band to record a live EP at London’s famed Dingwall’s venue.
The Chicago-based singer/songwriter/guitarist enjoyed a modicum of fame and female adoration in the mid 1970s as he and his band mates were lauded internationally in magazines, newspapers and on TV by no less than Jane Pauley on “The Today Show.”
When marriage and family became a priority in his life, Mimi focused on another talent - fine art, which he taught in the Chicago Public School system. The collage on the cover of “All That Glitters” is one of his creations.
“All That Glitters” marks Mimi’s long overdue return to music. In addition to lead single “Love Is Just A Thin Veneer,” the 10-song CD includes Mimi’s heartfelt rendition of “Across The Universe,” his ode to John Lennon on what would have been the Beatle’s 70th birthday. A tour is in the works for early next year.
