Snowy Red was a one-man minimal wave/synth band out of Belgium consisting of former Chainsaw (~1976) and Fame (~1978) member, Marcel Thiel, better known as Micky Mike.Though mostly a solo project, Micky Mike sometimes worked with other notables from the minimal wave/post-punk Brussels movement.
Niki Mono joined up with Mike in 1983 before going on to work with Winstong Tong and other members of Tuxedomoon and Minimal Compact. Not much is known about "Carol" who lent her vocals to one of Snowy Red's bigger hits, Breakdown.
After the release of The Beat is Over in 1989, Snowy Red called it quits and Micky Mike disappeared, only for the band to resurface again in 2003 as a duo at the Belgian Independent Music festival.He passed away in Bruxelles, in May 2009, at the age of 52 years.
