About Me:
Produced by Phil McKellar (Silverchair, Grinspoon, Spiderbait), The Black Stars debut self-titled EP received great attention from listeners and industry alike, ranging from strong reviews in national street press and music magazines to national airplay from Triple J, 4ZZZ, 3RRR, FBi and all alternative stations across Australia. This exposure helped the band kick it up a gear and consolidate an already strong live reputation by gigging the release solidly for the 12 months following.
12 months later the trio emerged with a new EP, a new studio and a new lease on their musical longevity. The second EP Money Or Your Life consists of 5 tracks recorded in Sydney with Phil McKellar, along with contributions recorded in Brisbane with producer Bryce Moorehead (Sekiden, Iron On) and tracks recorded by the band in their own new studio.
In 2008 The Black Stars supported iconic US outfit HELMET and were invited to open the main stage at Splendour In The Grass in Australia, playing alongside legendary acts such as DEVO, Wolfmother, The Music, The Vines, The The Fratellis, The Living End, The Presets, The Grates and many more.
2009 sees The Black Stars back in the studio to begin work on their debut album set for release later in the year.
