The MMHP in the 989 sat down with Mike Richards in the summer of 2024, with lead singer and guitarist of ADABOY!, a group that has spanned the past decade with growth and adjustment moving around players and parts, as well as songs and styles, to create one of Mid-Michigan's burgeoning bands that have recorded albums from Bay City to Nashville. Richards has spoken about releasing singles, pulling down past albums in focus of their new management and progression in the industry, and staying true to not one style, but positivity in his music. Following his heart.

In episode one, Richards gave us his past to present, with a new drummer on the horizon, wanting to issue singles as the months go by. We will update his story in part 2 in two weeks--showing the true projection and reflection of a band in action, growth, and its relationships with its fans. Richards spills the info on his life, mental illness, and his desire to be an assistant to society's growth, rather than be a negative flash-in-the-pan. Tune into Episode 1 of 2, NOW....
