Illinois' Kid Catastrophe Is Back


Bucks County, PA band-that-could Illinois have put their sprawling, 20-song endeavor The Adventures of Kid Catastrophe on the shelves at your local record store this week.

For 6 long months leading up to this physical edition of the album, the band pounded the virtual pavement all across the interweb, releasing a 3-song EP & video chapter per month from November ’08 – April ‘09. A few of which made it on The POP! Stereo.

With the music portion of the project available for fans to have and to hold – now literally – the 6 video chapters have culminated in a 22-minute narrative that is featured on the homepages of both YouTube and PureVolume and can now be viewed across the Internet.

Not one to rest on their laurels or their laptops and coming off residencies and Kid Catastrophe release shows in NY, Boston, DC and Philly, Illinois will embark on a cross-country US Tour with The Builders And The Butchers.
