HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA, March 29, 2011 (Press-News.org) What is 'The Truth'? For The Mick Donovan Band, it's both a song and a testament to their commitment to music. These boys from the San Francisco Bay Area are adamant about staying afloat in the music business, bringing their brand of adult contemporary/hard rock sensibility to listeners always wanting something new.
Who is The Mick Donovan Band (MDB)?
First up, Mick Donovan: the band's lead vocals who also plays the guitar and piano. The singer-songwriter graduated with a music degree and in 2001, he moved to San Francisco to start his musical career. He joined a regional music theater and then formed a hard rock band called Liquid in 2005. Even as an active member of Liquid, he joined singing and songwriting competitions which got him recognized. In 2009, with Liquid drummer Chris Sfarzo, Mick was joined by Erik Ezrin and John Walden, and they became The Mick Donovan Band.
MDB's Erik Ezrin is the band's lead guitarist. This Oakland, California native always had a passion for music. He began dabbling with it at just four years old, learned the clarinet and music theory at nine, and studied guitar at 14. When Erik was 17, he joined the United States Marine Corps, but after eight years of service, clearly, Erik still wanted to pursue music.
John Walden completes the MDB. John is in charge of the bass and drums. His various formal music studies (lessons with Ray Fransen of Fransen's Drum Center and guitar studies with Mandy Flowers) give The Mick Donovan Band an extremely well-sharpened music edge. No wonder, since this New Orleans native is a fluid bassist and solid drummer.
Together, Mick, Erik, and John form The Mick Donovan Band. With their first single 'The Truth' from their self-titled CD, MDB promises to deliver the right music chemistry that would make the world stop and listen. Interestingly enough, it's just like the message of their single 'The Truth' - about finding the right path for you. For The Mick Donovan Band, they found their path and that's making music that counts. And that's the truth.
The Mick Donovan Band's self-titled CD is available at iTunes distributed through JMD Records and INgrooves (a partner of Universal Music Group.)

Major advance in understanding how nanowires form
2011-03-29
New insights into why and how nanowires take the form they do will have profound implications for the development of future electronic components. PhD student Peter Krogstrup from the Nano-Science Center at the University of Copenhagen is behind the sensational new theoretical model, which is developed in collaboration with researchers from CINAM-CNRS in Marseille.
One of the most important components in future electronic devices will likely be based on nanocrystals, which are smaller than the wavelength of the light our eyes can detect. Nanowires, which are extremely ...

Smarter memory device holds key to greener gadgets
2011-03-29
Fast, low-energy memory for MP3s, smartphones and cameras could become a reality thanks to a development by scientists.
Researchers have created a tiny device that improves on existing forms of memory storage.
Conventional methods use electronic devices to convert data into signals that are stored as binary code. This latest device uses a tiny mechanical arm to translate the data into electrical signals. This allows for much faster operation and uses much less energy compared with conventional memory storage tools.
The device records data by measuring the current ...
Demographics cloud optimism on black violent crime decrease
2011-03-29
Optimism about studies that show a drop in the black percentage of crime may be dampened by demographic trends and statistical aberrations, according to a group of criminologists.
The rise in the U.S. Hispanic population and the sharp jump in black violent crime during the late 1980s and early 1990s may skew statistics from the FBI's Uniform Crime Reports and the National Crime Victimization Survey that appear to show a recent drop in black violence, said Darrell Steffensmeier, professor, sociology, and crime, law and justice, Penn State.
The researchers, who released ...
Early indications of Parkinson's disease revealed in dream sleep
2011-03-29
During a large-scale study of the socioeconomic costs of this neurodegenerative disease, Danish researchers, some from the University of Copenhagen, discovered that very early symptoms of Parkinson's disease may be revealed in dream or REM sleep.
Parkinson's disease is a brain disease best known for the trembling it causes. It is an incurable, chronic disease and gradually affects the muscles and mental capacity, seriously afflicting the lives if the patient and his or her immediate relatives.
"In the study we saw that eight years before diagnosis, Parkinson's sufferers ...

Heavy metals open path to high temperature nanomagnets
2011-03-29
How would you like to store all the films ever made on a device the size of an I-phone?
Magnets made of just a few metallic atoms could make it possible to build radically smaller storage devices and have also recently been proposed as components for spintronics devices. There's just one obstacle on the way. Nano-sized magnets have only been seen to work at temperatures a few hairs above absolute zero.
Now a chemistry student at the University of Copenhagen has demonstrated that molecular magnets using the metals ruthenium and osmium retain their magnetic properties ...

TU Delft identifies huge potential of nanocrystals in fuel cells
2011-03-29
The addition of extremely small crystals to solid electrolyte material has the potential to considerably raise the efficiency of fuel cells. Researchers at TU Delft in the Netherlands were the first to document this accurately. Their second article on the subject in a very short time was published in the scientific journal, Advanced Functional Materials.
Electrolyte
The researchers at the Faculty of Applied Sciences at TU Delft were concentrating their efforts on improving electrolyte materials. This is the material between two electrodes, for example in a fuel cell ...
