-RELATED BANDS-
All ex-members of June of '44 are currently playing in other bands.
Visit the June of 44 Family Page for a schematic view of the big family, I made that a couple of years ago, lots of new projects have been formed meanwhile...


Here is a list of projects with ex-June Of '44 members :

a project that started with work title DESTINATION will be offered as HiM (new line-up)
HiM has a new line up and includes Fred & Sean and some others, besides Doug (also in the old HIM line up). Check HiM @ utopia for all the latest info....

ABILENE (1999-now) 1 record available from Slowdime, 1 song on compilation from Zerobros and 1 record available from 54º40' or Fight!
Freddie T. Erskine joined them on trumpet in 2001!
also featuring Alex Dunham (ex-Regulatorwatts/Hoover), Craig Ackerman (ex-Lustre King) and Scott Adamson (ex-Chisel Drill Hammer). They formed in november 99 and played their first shows in the winter 00, their first album was recorded in spring of 00 by Juan Luis Carrera and came out early in 2001. Fans of the atmospheric, blues-dub guitarwork of Dunham's recent projects should be thrilled with this latest progression and the expert, crisp rhythm section at his disposal. Abilene has an amazing track on an animal rights compilation CD, it was released on Belgian based Zerobros. Abilene has just finished a record titled "Two Guns, Twin Arrows", it has come out on 54º40' or Fight! in October of 2002, they are playing doing a mini tour in October and November of 2002

THE SHIPPING NEWS on Quarterstick (96-now)
formed in November of 96, still alive & kicking with Jeff, Kyle Crabtree and Jason Noble (ex-Rodan, Rachel's) "Save Everything" was the title of their first album
They have recently released a 2nd album titled "Very Soon, and in Pleasant Company" (release date was January 16, 2001), it was Utopia's Album of the month in March 01!! They recorded it by temselves at Jason and Kyles house in Louisville, with help and engineering skills from Christina Files (she used to play drums in Victory At Sea). They have toured the US & Europe in 2001 & 2002 (check some of my photos), supersphere recorded 2 shows click here to check them out.
Each of the members of the Shipping News are writing and recording "solo songs" with no real collaboration amongst them for a total of three songs apiece nine in all, those songs will be released on 3 EP's in limited fashion (the first EP "Carrier" is available from Touch & Go mailorder for $10, the other 2 will be released later this year) and then they willl start working on a new full-length to probably come out next year sometime, they might re-work some of the solo songs to be full band songs, but mostly it's an experiment in songwriting.
