MéCHANT
'Méchant', also known as MECHANT or Mechant, is a Los Angeles-based alternative rock/power pop band fronted by lead singer Regina Zernay. Forrmer bassist for rock bands Halfcocked and Jam Balaya, Regina formed the band in late 2002/early 2003 to showcase her own material.
Regina is the primary songwriter and original bassist for the band. Original band members also include Jon Hayes (producer/lead guitarist), Mike Earnhart (drums), and Jim Jet (2nd guitar). The band recorded their first demo in 2003, featuring the songs ''Sweet'' and ''Superhero in Training.'' ''Sweet'' was included in the short film ''Outta Moves'' in 2005.
The original band dissolved in the summer of 2003. In 2005, with the help of several musician friends, Regina began recording Méchant's second CD, ''Fate and The Arsenal''. Most of the new record was written, recorded and produced by Regina using her home studio. ''Fate and The Arsenal'' is scheduled for release in late 2006. The band has also reformed, with new members Mark Burgess (lead guitar), Robert Hirsh (drums), and Dan Frohnen (bass).
On May 8, 2007, Sonia Tetlow announced on her website that Regina Zernay would be permanently replacing her in rock band Cowboy Mouth, [1] as Tetlow focuses on solo work. The status of Méchant due to this change has not been announced.
