   About A Thousand Apologies

In 2002, three of the four members of 'A Thousand Apologies' were tossed from the warmth of their secure family homes, into a battered and broken Queenslander somewhere in East Brisbane. With nothing but the unwashed clothes on their backs, and accumulating HECS debts & parking fines, their only hope was to fine-tune their musical capabilities, recruit a lead guitarist, and unite as one to take on the Brisbane indie scene...

Five years on, and the band has played headlining shows in nearly every Brisbane venue they could find, and on April 24th '07, released their debut 7 track EP to the world, starting with the 250+ punters at their EP launch night...

With their live performances tightly tuned, an EP in the hand, a huge repertoire of songs, and having just shot a film clip for 'All My Love,' this is obviously a snowball of a band that has started to gain some serious momentum, and you can expect to hear the avalanche coming very, very soon...

Recorded at Alchemix studios in Wooloongabba under the sure hands of producers 'Channel J' & 'i' (The Black Arts), ATA's debut EP is a tasty sampling of their musical prowess. While Dan’s twelve string guitar carves unique melodies, the rhythm section propel the song skyward and Andy sinks catchy lead hooks into the mix to create a dynamic, immersive sound...

A Thousand Apologies are based in Brisbane, Australia. Also, check out Dan's solo music at his myspace page, and also Denis and Ruw's other band, 'The Black Arts' (See friends list!)

'Their debut EP possesses an intense and captivating sound laced with the kind of hooks, unique vocal melodies and innovative execution that greats are made of.' - Time Off Magazine

'A Thousand Apologies followed up and rocked the place with a little more mid-range. Conjuring the spirit of Kurt Cobain at times, A Thousand Apologies injected a fresh positivism to the dirty rock they thrash out, with a complex array of hooks, grooves and rhythms.' - Rave Magazine Live Review

Dearest Dick Lover!
My dear son and his naughty band have released a fitting tribute to the end of George Bush's reign of terror with their animated filmclip George Bush's Chicken. Starring George W at home on the ranch with his muslem chicken Ned as well as guest appearances from some of his closest circle including Osama Bin Laden, Paris Hilton, Saddam Hussien, Barack Obama and Mr Ed, this is the behind the scenes insight the world has long waited for. I hope you enjoy it and am inspired to forward it to all your other friends in the last days of W’s war n terror.
Kindest Regards
