Butterfly Child is an Irish group led by singer/songwriter Joe Cassidy, currently based in Los Angeles, California. Described as "purveyors of shimmering, oceanic rock," they have released three full-length albums and numerous singles/EPs. Their new album ''Futures'' was released by Dell'Orso Records on 27 November 2015. == History == Butterfly Child was formed in Belfast, Northern Ireland in 1984. After playing shows throughout Ireland, Butterfly Child released their debut EP, ''Toothfairy'', on A.R. Kane's H.ark! label in 1991. Remarkable in its "frazzled, cracked fragility",〔 the EP caught the ear of legendary BBC DJ John Peel, who invited the band to record their first Peel Session on 12 January 1992 at Maida Vale Studios. A second EP entitled ''Eucalyptus'' was released the same year. The band then signed to Rough Trade Records in 1993 where they released the ''Ghetto Speak'' EP and the first full-length album, ''Onomatopoeia''. In November 1993, Butterfly Child returned to Maida Vale for a second Peel Session. Broadcast in January 1994, the session featured two songs that would later appear on the second album. Work began on ''The Honeymoon Suite'' in the summer of 1994, with the intent to release it that autumn. But its release was delayed due to disagreements with the record company over running order and content. After protracted discussions, the album was finally released as originally intended by Dedicated in 1995. Frustrated by the experience, Cassidy relocated to Chicago in 1997 to begin work on a third album. ''Soft Explosives'' was released in late 1998 by HitIt! Recordings, a Chicago-based label that had previously handled the US releases of the first two albums. Following a lengthy hiatus, Butterfly Child released ''No Longer Living In Your Shadow'' as a 7" single on Dell'Orso Records in 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Butterfly Child」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
