Paul Kidney Experience

Band,
Rock

Paul Kidney Experience has a core membership of Ben Butcher (guitar/trumpet/vocals). Nell Day (electric violin), Matt Gleeson (drums/bass), Don Rogers (bass/drums), Bonnie Mercer (guitar), Lloyd Honeybrook (sax), Paul Kidney (vocals). Psychedelic noise juggernaut the Paul Kidney Experience has been assaulting the eardrums of Melbourne in its current incarnation for four years. Fronted by the eponymous charismatic weirdo and supported by an ever-evolving cast of freaks and ne’er-do-wells, the band has carved out their own niche in the local scene and collaborated with legendary kraut-rock pioneers Mani Neumeier (Guru Guru), also playing support with the likes of Damo Suzuki (Can) and Mudhoney (USA). Paul Kidney’s impeccable noise heritage includes masterminding such cult 80s and 90s freak-grunge bands as Southern Fried Kidneys, Kiss My Poodles Donkey and Monroe’s Fur. The PKE is a moveable feast featuring members of the Grey Daturas, Baseball, The Stabs, Infinite Decimals, Dead River, Faspeedelay and Jihad Against America.
