The Curtain Thieves have drawn on a combination of traditional rock influence and pop hooks to gain the band a strong following during the early stage of their career. A strong emphasis on vocal harmonies, alternating rhythms and face-melting guitar licks grab the attention of any listener.

A Louth based rock band who have been together for over 4 years, they have previously launched two 4 track EPs and a single and received some great reviews for their work. The band are set to launch their next single Animal in June 2012.

They launched their latest single on the 1st of July aiming for a position in the Irish Music Charts and had great success with it. The single Only in the Night secured the number 35 spot in the top 50 single sales in Ireland as well as the number 3 spot in the top 10 Irish physical sales. iTunes too promoted the single as its top recommendation for “Home Grown” music after it reached number 135 on their trending downloads charts.

In the summer of 2010, the band embarked on their first tour of Ireland and Northern Ireland, playing in some of the countries top venues including, The Academy, Whelan’s, The Village - Dublin, The Roisin Dubh – Galway, Dolans – Limerick, Auntie Annie’s – Belfast, The Crane Lane - Cork, The Spirit Store - Dundalk and more.

The tour was a great success for the band as their fan base became more national. As a result of the tour, The Thieves were asked to play at a number of independent festivals around the country including Temple House Festival, North South Festival, Tanglewood Festival and Vantastival.

With a lot of hard work, some publicity stunts and even an illegal rave in a forest - The Curtain thieves have defiantly earned their place on the Irish Music Scene.
