THOMAS TRUAX
http://www.myspace.com/thomastruax
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!

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.
