EUCALYPTUS AND THE KAMIKAZE KOALAS
For a long time, the world has been striken with unknowing souls wandering the earth with no purpose but to follow the sheep that lead them astray...on a rainy, Atlantan day, the unknowing spirits of Roark Bailey, Daniel Sabio, and Eddie Torres crossed paths...leading to the fall of the world as we know it...and the rise of one of the many new impactors that hope to revolutionize the WORLD and our perspective of it forever...this path to a better place is led only by Eucalyptus himself, whose identity must be held secretly within each of the individually revolutionaries' (koalas') souls...for this secret and the purpose of Eucalyptus, the koalas will fight until the death
Band/artist history
EUCALYPTUS AND THE KAMIKAZE KOALAS are a blues infused rock band with rootsy underpinnings and fancy fretwork, according to the Athens Banner-Herald. The group began as a project entitled Something Less Human, composed of guitarists Roark Bailey and Eddie Torres. In the Spring of 2007, Daniel Sabio gratefully joined the duo to create a reborn, upbeat percussion-injected sound...from there the saga began...and only 2 months ago reinvented itself with the additions of Dylan Banks (drums) and Andrew Short (bass)
