Boge’s debut album at Tanks
Singer’s road trip with The Final Days of Autumn
AT their height, The Butterfly Effect were one of the hardest working bands in the country and for frontman Clint Boge very little has changed.
However, this time, Boge is heading on the road solo in support of his debut album tour, The Final Days of Autumn.
This intimate show at the Tanks Arts Centre on Friday, May 12, promises a personal experience with one of Australia’s most recognisable and authentic vocalists as he explores the softer and darker aspects of himself.
Gig-goers are sure to be captivated with his soulful songs and heartfelt lyrics and can expect highlights from his new album as well as songs from his 2015 EP, Songs of a Delicate Nature.
With a voice that sounds even better live than recorded, mainly because audiences can hear him speak between songs, Boge’s stripped-down arrangements and vocal versatility promise an extraordinary performance.
After working in The Butterfly Effect and other Brisbane band, Like Thieves, where songwriting was largely been a group effort, Boge says he was yearning to explore the craft on his own.
“When you’ve got different writing dynamics in each band, there was still a part that I wasn’t addressing – my own stuff, which is not folk, but has an almost country-esque tinge to it,” he said.
Though Boge is out there burning up his fuse alone, he’s also been working again with The Butterfly Effect after touring again last year with their album IV and says the rest of the year holds plenty in-store for his solo work and band collaborations.
“I don’t know if I’ve bitten off more than I can chew or if I’m keeping myself occupied so that idle hands don’t do the Devil’s work,” he said.
Clint Boge is at the Tanks Arts Centre on May 12.
