Thursday June 5, 2008-Wild Sweet Orange-6pm

FREE sweet, exclusive t-shirts for all those who attend the in-store. Here's what Spin magazine has to say about the band's debut EP: "The Whale presents a beautifully mournful blend of sparkling acoustic guitars and enchanting riffs under Lovinggood's forceful, John Vanderslice-like vocals. The buttery, dreary 'Be Careful What You Want' adds a few weirdly high-pitched riffs to this mix, and the effect is delicately intoxicating." -Spin

Clint Niosi was born in Shakopee Minnesota in 1979. For most of the eighties he ran around his nieghborhood in Bloomington, MN. His parents taught him the family trade (glass etching) and introduced him to some excellent oldies music. Clint's older brother made sure he had a healthy dose of heavy metal...while his sister showed him the refinement of 80's top 40 radio. In 1993, much to Clint's dismay, his family moved to the convergance of evil known to some as Mansfield Texas. One month prior to the move however Clint's father provided him with his first guitar. Without many friends in his newfound home Clint spent hours in his room trying to learn classic rock...and all those Seatle band's songs that he taped from the radio. At age 16 Clint obtained an Ovation acoustic guitar. That was a nice day. Clint went on to study the musical history and lyrics of the majorty of popular music that was released between A.D. 1950 and 2000. In 2001 he stopped listening to the radio so much. Currently his musical interests include classical and world music, ambient "noise", hip-hop beats, old country, blue grass, and the Fort Worth music scene. As a songwriter Clint describes his personal taste as, "old fashioned". "I like melody and a good harmony...those never go out of style." Clint was the songwriter for several bands that failed to last very long. One band would break up...he would write new songs for the next....then that band would break up (etc). Eventually Clint found himself with a pile of songs and no band...so he continued to play the songs. He didn't just name the band, "Clint Niosi"...that would be silly... and unpractical, because it's apparently hard to spell. Here are some funny misspellings: Clint Nosi - Ridglea Theater 2003. Clint Kiosi - The Moon 2003. Chris Niosi (his brother's name) The Curtain Club 2003. Clint Noisy (It had to happen) Rubber Gloves 2004. Clint recently recieved a B.A. in English from the University of Texas at Arlington. He is working on a full length ablum titled, "The Sound of Dead Horses Beaten Against Cold Shoulders" to be released this year. Ocassionally he writes in the third person.

Singer songwriter with an amazing sonic colorization to every song as if he were a painter. What Elliott Smith would have done if he were in Sonic Youth.
