"Thief Taker introduce a whole new sound to proceedings." - Stuart Rhodes (Harrogate Advertiser)

"Thief Taker does have a very distinctive English sound ... there’s also a complexity in most of these songs ... a gratifyingly complex beast ... Vive la difference." - Shane Blanchard (www.tastyfanzine.org.uk)

   About Thief Taker

Free MP3s on Last.fm

Hello, we are Thief Taker. Currently based in Leeds.
We are a four-piece.
Right now we are gigging, writing, recording when we can, practising, the usual. If you like what you hear, feel free to ask us for a free copy of our latest demo. Also feel free to give us a gig.
The song "5 out of 8/Higher Now/So Low/Out Row" is a work in progress, the latter half was essentially composed on the spot. Thus, the 'higgledy-piggledy' nature of this recording.
"Boom Town" is an ode to our favourite town, Blackburn. The guitar player, James McIntosh, loves it so much he has now been there and back three times in one week people!
The two tracks were recorded by John Thornton. He is great. Hire him!

We are unsigned and unmanaged.

Send an e-mail to thieftakerband@hotmail.com to be put on our mailing list and we will try to keep you up-to-date
