The Band 'Feeding the Machine' (FTM) is back together and ready to rock in a reunion concert Friday, October 22, 2010 at the Big House Bar on Midland Street in Bay City.

Their live shows are intense, no holds barred ordeals with originals and a variety of rock covers.

Feeding The Machine is;
  • Fran MacMillan - Drums
  • Bruce LaFrance - Bass, Keys
  • Kevin McCreery - Guitar


  • According to MacMillan the last time the band performed out together was in 2006.

    MacMillan, said, "I'm looking forward to this reunion concert at the Big House on Friday." MacMillan continued, "It would be nice to keep going after this and to get back into the studio, but we will see how it goes."

    LaFrance and McCreery are former members of the popular rock band called TANTRIC.


    Feeding The Machine (FTM), started in the nineties. This after long time friends Kevin McCreery and Fran MacMillan from the band Mach were looking to start a new project after the departure of Mach Bassist, Eric Link.

    After searching and auditioning different Bass players they could not hit on the right combination. In a chance happening they ran into Bassist Bruce LaFrance performing at a local show. Though both McCreery and MacMillan knew LaFrance it had never occurred to them to give him a shot.

    Seeing that he had that in your face style and love of similar music, it was done and FTM was born.
