Bio:
After successfully starring in and winning VH1’s Emmy-nominated series “Bands on the Run”, Flickerstick Followed the series with a video for the song “Smile” and a pairing with Sony/Epic, Welcoming Home the Astronauts, the band’s debut independent album, was re-released on Sony/Epic featuring two additional tracks in November of 2001 and sold over 100,000 copies.
Taking a much needed although brief hiatus from their rampant touring schedule, Flickerstick stowed away in their native Dallas, TX, to write a darker, rock conscious album combining an inventive new freshness to their sensible styling, connecting the listener to a new sonic chapter in their sound library. Tarantula was produced by Keith Cleversley (Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, Urge Overkill) at his Playground Studios in Chicago, IL with additional production by Tim Patalan (The Fags, Sponge)
