Mike Meijer was once called 'a pop veteran without a ribbon' in the Nieuwe Revue. It is not entirely clear whether that was meant positively, but it is somewhat true: Mike played drums in bands such as the Scene, de Gigantjes, Jump Dickie Jump, Gruppo Sportivo and with musical theater group Orkater. In addition, as a singer/composer/lyricist/multi-instrumentalist, he has released a whole series of CDs that you can listen to on Spotify. Mike also wrote a book about drumming, drums and drummers that Boem! Is called. In January 2020 he published his collection of poems and stories HET PODUIMBEEST. He performs as drummer/singer of the blues band RUSTY APOLLO and together with his son Mozes he has a duo where he sings his lyrics to music Mozes makes.

​

In addition to all these activities, Mike was also a teacher at the MBO music school in Amsterdam for 4 years.
