Thrushes

Blast form the past: the echo driven sounds from the Thrushes, a quartet from Baltimore. Their new album Sun Come Undone is a mix of late eighties Boston alternate rock (Throwing Muses, Pixies) and Scottish drone meisters The Jesus And Mary Chain.

You want in two words? Beautiful noise. Think of Sonic Youth in a rather good mood.

The Thrushes are:
Anna Conner: Voice, Guitar
Casey Harvey: Guitar, Fx, Voice
Matt Davis: Drums, Chimes, Bells
Rachel Tracy: Bass Guitar

Sun Come Undone is distributed by Morphius Records.

MP3: Thrushes - Aidan Quinn
MP3: Thrushes - Heartbeats
