Ninjas are normally hard to find. Not so with Ninja Academy. The band will be releasing their first 7" vinyl record and playing a September 24 show at Founders Brewing Company.
The vinyl record features a Ninja Academy original track along with a cover of Radiohead's "Idioteque". Ninja Academy's show in celebration of the release will also feature Donkey Punch, a martial artist with mad nun-chuck skills. Band members include Indo-Ninja on bass and Outdo-Ninja on drums.
Outdo-Ninja says of the band, "Our live show is full of energy, with some laughs thrown in. We like to have a good time on stage and try to get people to have a good time with us."
The band completed its first national tour in April, playing 33 shows in 39 days all over the United States. Ninja Academy will also embark upon a second tour of 30 shows in 26 days.
The instrumental bass and drums rock duo hails from Los Angeles, California and expects to release a full length CD in January 2010, to be followed by another tour.
"Being a ninja on stage is amazing. I mean, we're always ninjas, but once we get on stage something takes over and it's pretty liberating. A whole different side of our personalities come out," said Outdo-Ninja.
Tickets to the show at Founders are $5. The show begins at 10 p.m. To learn more about the band, visit ninjaacademy.com or visit their MySpace.
