Thursday 4/17 @ Rock City! Posted By: Ken on 2008-04-13 21:28:03
We'll be back again at the Rock City Ice House this coming Thursday! We'll be playing with guitar great, Gary Hoey! It's going to be a great night of music and guitar playing. Doug Morrison will be opening up, Meyvn @ 11pm. This will be our last show in Austin for at least two months. We'll be taking a break in May and doing some road shows June. Don't miss this show!
Recording Posted By: Ken on 2008-04-13 21:19:47
We spent all of last weekend up in Dallas again at Nomad studios. We had a great time laying down the rest of the tracks for our new material. It hasn't even been mixed yet and we think it already sounds incredible! Thanks to Sterling for doing such a great job so far. And thanks again to Scott(Intellitouch Tuners) for putting us up in a hotel in Frisco w/ free breakfast, and I ain't talkin about cereal boxes and cold bagels, real breakfast. We got some random late night antics on film that just might make it on to our documentary-alcohol and wrestling were involved. We'll keep you up to date on when we'll have new songs available to listen to, stayed tuned!
Meyvn in Atlanta June 14th! Posted By: Drew on 2008-03-28 14:24:52
We'll be headed to Atlanta for the first time this June to play with Mindflow, Halcyon Way, A Lower Deep, and Eclipsed By Sanity! Tickets will be on sale tomorrow at Ticket Alternative (www.ticketalternative.com). Should be an excellent show! We will be playing another show between Austin and Atlanta on Friday the 13th (yikes!), most likely in Baton Rouge - more info on that later!
Recording is going very well so far! The drums came out sounding KILLER and we're just about done tracking guitars and bass. Next weekend we'll be headed back up to Nomad Studios to record vocals, keys, and mix it!
Shows! Posted By: Drew on 2008-02-22 10:41:01
We've got some shows lined up! March 22nd is going to be our big comeback show after almost 6 months off from live shows, and we're playing at the new Rock City Icehouse! This is a great venue in North Austin - it reminds us of the Backroom, but cleaner, with more parking! We'll also be travelling to Atlanta this summer for a big progressive metal show with Mindflow from Brazil (who we played with at Texas Madfest), and of course we'll have a bunch of shows inbetween!
Check back in a week for studio updates!
Heading to the studio next month! Posted By: Drew on 2008-02-04 13:24:15
We're heading to Nomad Studios next month to record a couple songs with producer Sterling Winfield, who has produced numerous albums by Pantera, Damageplan, King Diamond, and others. We're pretty excited to be working with the same guy that helped produce some of our favorite albums! We'll be filming the entire process for the documentary and hopefully these recordings will help us find management and a new record label.
Also, we're booking shows again! First one should be in mid-March, so stay tuned for details!

Happy Holidays from Meyvn Posted By: Drew on 2007-12-24 11:14:19
Have a Merry Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/whatever you celebrate this holiday season! Its been a hell of a year for us, starting with our recently released album "Splintered Skies" getting great press and distribution and culminating with our trip to the Netherlands for ProgPower Europe. Next year promises to be even better as we work on our new album and a few other exciting developments. Thanks for all of your continued support and we'll see you next year!
- Drew, Rick, Ken, and Reuben
Jon leaves Meyvn Posted By: Jon on 2007-12-20 11:01:54
“I have decided to leave Meyvn as I no longer have the same interest in the band that I once had. Meyvn is a hard working, talented band with plenty of perseverance so I know they have what it takes to go very far. Some of my favorite moments in life occurred playing live with Meyvn, and I will miss them. The most memorable shows to me were at the Backroom playing with our friends Shrapnel. We also had many frustrating shows playing in barns out in the middle of no where, but it was all great fun and a great learning experience! Thanks to all the supporting fans that continually came to our shows, you will greatly be missed as well. I will of course continue to pursue music although at this point I believe I will be taking a little break from playing metal in general. I will miss the guys and wish them the best of luck!
-Jon Simpson”
