 Kid Koala Joins the Hard Sell Tour With DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist
After a year-long, worldwide run of ALBUM LAUNCH DJ PARTIES in support of his Ninja Tune release "Your Mom's Favorite DJ", Kid Koala has been invited to join the Hard Sell Tour on eighteen dates throughout North America.

The Hard Sell Tour features DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist on 8 turntables, 4 mixers and 2 effects pedals, and showcases the third installment in their mix series which began with the now infamous "Brainfreeze" and "Product Placement" recordings.

Kid Koala will be warming up the night with his own blend of record scratching, thumb wrestling and robot dance competitions!

Following this run, Kid Koala will be touring Australia and France before returning to the studio to complete his next graphic novel and soundtrack.

So show up early! You won't want to miss any part of this legendary event!

Back in the studio shooting clay mosquitos...
The new Kid Koala book is in development. The follow up to "Nufonia Must Fall" is about a Mosquito that plays Jazz clarinet.
So far, Chapter 1 is fully complete - it took roughly 6 weeks to build, develop and shoot. There are around 12 chapters left to photograph.
The sets have been built/painted by Louisa Schabas and Corinne Merrell. The characters were sculpted by Kid Koala. These photos were taken by Paul Labonte.
Ok below are some test photos from chapter one. The backgrounds are still missing on some of them... but we thought we'd give you a sneak peek at what we've been working on. (click to enlarge in new window)
There is also a soundtrack to this book which is now in the process of being recorded. More updates to come.
