{{Social media/Instagram| | {{Social media/Instagram|Happy birthday to Mike Byrne! He was the drummer for The Smashing Pumpkins from 2009 to 2014. Before joining the band, he played drums in the Sky Saxon tribute band Spirits in the Sky for eight shows in July-August 2009. | ||
The | When Billy Corgan called for rehearsals to replace Jimmy Chamberlin, Byrne auditioned and was chosen out of thousands of applicants. On August 17, 2009, he was officially named as the new drummer for The Smashing Pumpkins. The Pumpkins were already one of his favorite bands, with Jimmy Chamberlin among his most influential drummers. Byrne's YouTube channel, which he created three years prior to joining the band, had been "MarquisinSpadez", a reference to the song "Marquis in Spades", from the Zero EP. He also was in a band called The Mercury Tree, which is the original name for the Machina song "The Crying Tree of Mercury", though this connection may have been mere coincidence. | ||
Byrne performed drums for most of Teargarden by Kaleidyscope. As a part of the project, he contributed drumming duties on Oceania, the Pumpkins' eighth full-length album. On April 17, 2010, Byrne played his first show under the Smashing Pumpkins moniker in celebration of Record Store Day – a show which saw the live debut of "Soot and Stars". | |||
<nowiki>https://spcodex.wiki/wiki/ | Aside from The Smashing Pumpkins, Byrne cites some of his influences as The Cure, Maserati, Maps and Atlases, and Pelican. In 2011, he won best "Up and Coming" drummer in Modern Drummer's Reader's Poll. His last show (as well as bassist Nicole Fiorentino's) with The Smashing Pumpkins was on August 17, 2013. In June 2014, Billy Corgan reported that Byrne had left the band. | ||
