Singer Moby spreads his wing by forming another band that is still anonymous. The new band is still searching for a proper name while giving first taste of their music in several US stages.
"We were 'the Little Death' until we realized that there are about five other Little Deaths out there and, as we live in a litigatious culture, we opted to avoid lawsuits and, thus, refrained from naming ourselves 'the Little Death,'" Moby revealed. The band has played its show in a fundraising event in New York and will launch their career further in a number of June shows.
