Thomas Truax – Beehive Heart

June 15, 2010 - 3:10 pm No Comments

Reasons to love Thomas Truax:

  • He plays an instrument of his own making called The Hornicator.
  • He’s been described as “Like Tom Waits, presenting kids TV.”
  • He wrote a song about Joe Meek’s attempt to warn Buddy Holly of his impending death called “Joe Meek Warns Buddy Holly”. Naturally.
  • He used to be an animator on Celebrity Deathmatch.
  • He is FREAKIN’ AWESOME.

Listen to / download a track from his new album, Sonic Dreamer. Then buy said album because, like I said, it’s FREAKIN’ AWESOME.
