Avant-Garde

Thee Moths

Thee Moths are sometimes several, often one. Since forming in 2000 the band has expanded and contracted as needs dictated. Over the last few years Thee Moths has been Alex Botten and whoever he asks to help. The music is just as fractured as the line-up, with recordings and shows going from laptop glitching to acoustic folk as the mood takes. Over 8 years Thee Moths totalled 55 releases on a myriad of labels around the world. Put on ice in July 2008. Warming up again winter/spring 2009....
