Full Name: Michael Emile Craig
Birthdate: February 15, 1960
Birthplace: Hammersmith, London
Roles: Bassist of Culture Club, songwriter, the stabilizing force in the chaos
Mikey grew up in London's vibrant cultural melting pot, and developed a love for music early on. He was one of the founding members of Culture Club. His warm and sometimes funky bass lines form the emotional backbone of the band's sound.
While often quieter in interviews, Mikey's presence in the band is vital -- he is the calm in the storm, the ground energy in a group famous for its emotional turbulence.
He has always been the band's gentle soul: observant, deeply kind, and endlessly loyal.
In my AU, Mikey is the emotional glue of the band -- the steady friend, the voice of reason, and the man who always checks up on everyone else, even when he is hurting, himself.
