January 2008:  Ready Steady Go!  We have a new project in the works, timing is yet to be determined for release but the band has made some tremendous progress and look forward to the next release.  No title yet....should we use boobs and ass to attract the passers by?  Should we advertise a multitude of rehab trips and blast the cover with gold $$$$$$$ and sideways Yankee hats and pants that don't fit?  I'm not sure that in 2008, when everything's made in china and drugs come to America by the semi truck loads via Mexico and ship loads Via Afghanistan and Asia, when manufacturing in the USA has come to a crawl and nobody purchases a whole CD anymore, where you don't have to steal playboys from the neighbors garbage to see a naked girl, and video games say fuck and you can play against some little shit 3,000 miles away that it really matters anymore!; Therefore, we will name it the Naked drug addict girl from the hood, with an ambition for bling and baseball, imported drugs not made in America who plays Call of  Duty 4 with her net partner from Iraq who's dad just killed an American soldier while fighting for her useless freedom, while listening to her newly down loaded mega hit manufactured by some conglomerated/corporate pre-manufactured entertainment mutlti-media mogul group.  We Love You All!  Most Wanted 2008

September 2007:  Got very wet this summer and currently making progress with more art and such.  We finished as a semi finalist at Emergenza, sorry we did not bring a bus full of naked chicks and shit...were not into that sort of thing to win guitar strings, but it was sweet, thank you for the great support.  Ray Bailey  Please Come Home........we love ya, man!

February 2005:  We closed out 2004 with great shows at Whitmore and Lake Side.  January started hot, but the sub zero temps froze out the masses providing the group with the hottest of hot loyalist still making their way out to see us.  Thank you!  We have decided to spend a bit of time working in the studio to record some additional newly inspired songs.  We are looking forward to it!  You know our feelings about the whole new lip sync culture of artists, pre programmed music and the over saturation and marketing of crap to the masses,  Paul McCartney kicked ass at the super bowl and it was light years above Justin and Janet's boobs and friends from years past.  Most Wanted kudos to Jacksonville Fla., the Super Bowl and Paul!

May 2003,

Most Wanted has been working on the third CD and it is scheduled to be released sometime in 2003.  After making a few changes in the line up during recording sessions, Most Wanted finds itself in position to deliver better than ever.  The band consists of Mark Hiser, Greg Kerkes, Mike Claffey and Scott Arborgast.  Claffey  the original bassist with Most Wanted rejoined the group in August 2002 and has been working hard on the recordings and live show.  Scotty comes to the band as a seasoned pro formerly playing with the band Power Trip.  He has brought skill and energy to stage left for the band.  As for Greg and Mark, they have taken time off from the circuit to enjoy the studio and create what we believe will be our finest work of art yet.  The project was recorded and while in mix downs, Scott signed up to play so the band has decided to table mixing and go back on the circuit to tryout some new cosmetics on some new and faithful faces.  The first shows will be in June. Commencement of the 2003 tour will be at the Shack in Tecumseh on June 20th.  Dates will be booked through out the area through the end of the year.  As for finishing the third CD, we will be recording at Toyland Studios on off weeks until the project is finished.  Digital photos will be welcomed at all our live shows for we plan to publish club shots on our website following the shows. 

In February Most Wanted was featured on WRIF and the title song Tattoo Girls has received some air play.  While on-line please play our singles at mp3.com.  You can also contact us at mostwantedband@hotmail.com. The Most Wanted jet is refueled and ready to fly. 

See you all real soon! The Band   

Yesterdays News,

Most Wanted rocked 2001 with blue-collar power.  In the trench’s working from club to club the band play several packed shows every month.  Thank you for all of your support.  During June, our exhausted lead singer collapsed the day after a show at the Other Side and spent several days in the hospital.  Not missing any shows the band was out on the warpath three weeks later.  During the rehab period Mark penned lyrics for two songs slated for the third CD.  Those songs are “Forgiveness” and “Mountains” both inspired by the taxing business of the Rock Music Industry.  In September Megawave Records held a CD release party for the new CD titled TATTOO GIRLS.  Sadly the actual release date of the group’s second effort was September 11^th.  Horrified and humbled by the events of that day the group forgot about the fact that their new record was officially released until a conversation with a radio personality brought it up several weeks later.  After the tragedy Mark, Ray, and Greg found peace in the studio and spent several weeks recording demo’s for the next record.  The song Contradictions is a song about the contradictions faced in our lives and was inspired by the recent world events.  The group totally enjoys their moderate success as recording artists and has built a 24 track analog studio to allow as much opportunity to be creative as possible.  The studio is called Toy Land for the variety of instruments, microphones, equipment and amplifiers available to the band for recording.  

“TATTOO GIRLS” is a fun CD inspired by the shows and personal relationships.  The First record “MOST WANTED” was mostly written about relationship events.  “TATTOO GIRLS” for the most part, is made to dance to during the live performance over some hart felt lyrics.  Respectfully the songs “Tattoo Girls”, “Crazy Little Women” and “Passion Crier” will be anthems for all you secretly wild and not so secretly wild girls.  “Cliff of Temptation” is for the confused and “Last Band” goes out to any DJ not willing to play our shit!  “WE ROCK” so give it a fucking chance!  Anyway the next record will be jaded and adventurous as you may already surmise.  Early recordings have already set the tone and the band is looking forward to a stunning release in 2002.

“TATTOO GIRLS” is getting some radio airplay and gaining a lot of interest in the music industry.  Mark, Ray and Paul Keefner played an acoustic set on WJR’s Mitch Albom Show in November.  WRIF and 89X will be featuring the material on their local shows featuring area artists.

The group has made a recent change in personnel.  At the end of 2001, former lead Guitarist Greg Gdanic and the group parted ways in search of something more.  Greg will be looking toward other avenues for music satisfaction and is wished well on his journey.  In December, Ann Arbor area guitar player Paul Keefner joined the Most Wanted line up and will bring a variety of talents to the band.  Paul has extensive experience as a recording artist, producer, engineer and is an accomplished songwriter.  He is an active-technical player and pays great attention to music and guitar detail.  Paul is a young veteran with road experience and is a good fit with the group.  With confidence, they have loaded the schedule with many different clubs and look forward to showcasing the original material as often as possible.

Check out the Most Wanted merchandise; if you are interested place your orders at a show.  See the merchandising section of the site for the selection of goods.   Also don’t forget to email or at least sign the guest book, in any event, your communication and support is essential for survival, this is a band and you are the key element to the creativity.  Mark, Ray, Greg and Paul are working hard and are planning on a busy year full of shows, radio play, making a video for “Tattoo Girls”, recording and releasing their third record and meeting lots of new faces.  Warning: don’t just hide behind your computer screens, come out, introduce your selves and rock on with Most Wanted, Because if you don’t………You will grow old fast, be uptight, opinionated, hypocritical and have a hard time enjoying what life you have left!  Ask your mini van dealer if you fit that resemblance!  Still make time for yourself and Just Enjoy Being we are all here just a little while!  Peace and Groovieness!       

So long for now from Mark, Justin, Scott and Greg!
