News: The Butterfly Effect singer starts side project!
While The Butterfly Effect are off the road to write their next album, vocalist Clint Boge has assembled a new band called Thousand Needles In Red.
“TNIR is giving me some new territory to explore while TBE are in writing mode this year” Boge explains, adding with a glint in his eye, “And you know what they say idle hands are the devil’s playground.” A self titled 7-track EP will be released when the band hits the road next month, with all songs written by Boge and guitarist Trizo of Sydney band Kill The Capitol. Despite the fact they live in different cities, 14 songs took place via Skype!
The other members are drummer Lee Moloney (Diesel, Alex Lloyd, Jimmy Barnes, The Whitlams, Rob Hirst’s Ghostwriter) and bassist Andre Madern.

I remember seeing Blondie at the Falls Fest in 98. Brilliant. But as a kid my parents would take us to a lot of festivals. I remember running around dancing, annoying people, stealing things, so much fun.
