Boom Crash Opera is now fronted by Andrew De Silva. About touring with Taxiride Peter Farnan of Boom Crash Opera said, “The connections are endless. We’ve toured together, we’ve played together. Members and ex-members have co-mingled in bands all over the place. Above all there’s the respect we have for each other’s work. And privately – who can pull out the most hits on any given night? There’s the challenge…A challenge we can’t wait to through down….”
Taxiride’s Jason Singh is also looking forward to the tour. “You probably couldn’t get a more perfectly matched double bill in my opinion. Boom Crash Opera have been a constant companion throughout my musical life. With 7 hits from their debut album alone, it makes for a hit filled night to remember. We’ve toured together before, in fact the last tour Taxiride did before we took a much- needed long break was with BCO. So, for us to reform to celebrate the amazing legacy we’ve worked for and to pick it up where we left off with BCO is incredible”.
