Brooklyn, New York-based trio BLIND IDIOT GOD has signed on with Dutch booking agency Paperclip. Festival appearances and tour dates all over Europe are being planned for late 2015 through 2016.

BLIND IDIOT GOD co-founder Andy Hawkins says: “Paperclip booked BLIND IDIOT GOD‘s first tours in Europe starting in the ’80s while we were on SST. We still get positive feedback from people who came to those shows.”

BLIND IDIOT GOD is Andy Hawkins on guitar; Tim Wyskida (KHANATE, JODIS, PLOTKIN & WYSKIDA) on drums; Will Dahl on bass (though founding member Gabe Katz plays bass on “Before Ever After“, the band’s first album since 1992).

The group has shared the stage with artists like John Zorn (a collaborator who released their third album on Avant Records), HELMET, BLACK FLAG, THE MINUTEMEN, SONIC YOUTH, DIE KREUZEN, DON CABALLERO, JESUS LIZARD and NAPALM DEATH, among many others.
