Side projects

Jim Creeggan, Kevin Hearn and Steven Page all have side projects that are worked on during hiatus from BNL touring and studio time. Jim is part of the alternative/jazz trio The Brothers Creeggan, with brother and former BNL member Andy Creeggan and friend Ian McLauchlan. Kevin is the frontman of Kevin Hearn and Thin Buckle, who play a mix of alternative rock and jazz with many other eclectic influences. Thin Buckle features players from several other Canadian alternative bands, such as Rheostatics. Lead singer/guitarist Steven Page also has a side project with collaborator Stephen Duffy called The Vanity Project. Their first album featuring the single "Thats All Thats All" in America and "Wilted Rose" in Canada was released in June 2005.
