:: T.B.G. HEAD OUT TO BRAZIL ::
It's been a while since the last T.B.G. live dates and now, with Mat finished work on the solo album Seperatista! (for the moment), he has been writing for T.B.G. and the band has been back at work on the new tunes.
It..s been a while between gigs for The Beautiful Girls and this month the band get active again, playing their first shows back.
In Brazil.
After a few false starts, the band is getting to Brazil for dates in the last week of June and the first week of July. Dates are Imbituba - June 27th: Curibita - June 29th and Sao Paulo on July 3.
The guys aim to blow out a few studio cobwebs and test out some of the new songs that they have been working on.
Watch out for some Australian festival dates later in the year, and we can all look forward to a new release, down for early next year - we will have more release and touring news up here shortly.
'008 has been a huge year for the Beautiful Girls touring, they were allowed back into the States for the first time in a year. And to celebrate they tore it up, playing summer fests all over: WINNIPEG festival in Canada, the new ROTHBURY fest and SUMMER fest in the U.S. AND the big German Festivals, HURRICANE FESTIVAL - check the line-up if you have a chance at www.hurricane.de on between the 20th and 22nd of June and SOUTHSIDE FESTIVAL.
