Apologies for the lack of updates recently- we’ve all been busy as
hell, working on new recordings (about which more very soon…)
In the meantime, we’ll be playing our regular slot at Goodbye, Faithful Kingdom! this Tuesday for Thomas Truax’s David-Lynch-inspired album launch.
“Goodbye, Faithful Kingdom! is refreshingly different” - Subba-Cultcha
Tickets available here…
THOMAS TRUAX
Thomas Truax is a New Yorker currently
residing in London. He’s a singer-songwriter and inventor of strange
self-made instruments like his now legendary ‘Hornicator’ and motorized
mechanical drum machines including new ‘Mother Superior’. He employs
these as well as traditional instruments in exceptionally crafted,
witty and often touching songs. His activities have been documented in
two feature-length films: ‘Instrumental’, from director Gabe Shalom
(US, 2005) and Adam Clitheroe’s ‘One Man In The Band’ (UK, 2008). With
three acclaimed full length albums under his belt: ‘Full Moon Over
Wowtown’(2004), ‘Audio Addiction’(2005), and ‘Why Dogs Howl at the
Moon’ (2007) Thomas took a break from near-constant touring and work on
a nearly completed fourth original album to concentrate instead on an
album of cover songs from the films of David Lynch.
Goodbye, Faithful Kingdom! are informed that Thomas Truax will be
doing a Lynch-themed show at The Macbeth, which might feature a
backwards-speaking dancing dwarf!

“Inventive and Romantic” -TimeOut
“Beguilingly Bizarre” –Uncut
THE MONROE TRANSFER
“The Monroe Transfer demand to be absorbed by candlelight, with a phial of absinthe on the side.” – Metro (One To Watch)
GNOMES OF ZURICH
Two piece dirty blues and punked up rock
put through a mincer and turned into a riotous mess of danceable beats,
incomprehensable noise and beautiful, soaring melodies. Featuring Ben
Walker (of Sidearm and Good Luck Fox fame) and Andy Clydesdale of the
Audio Massage empire.
