Thrush is a 3-piece supergroup from Minneapolis. It's members are well known for their roles in various renowned groups, as performers and producers. A combination of three unlikely musicians that were friends from diverse backgrounds, having decided to get together to see what might come out of a day in the studio back in 1994, they quickly found that they had a chemistry that couldn't be denied. They recorded an album in a day, and over the years, amassed enough material to do several more records. Unfortunately, their opportunities to get together for this phenominal side project have been few, so they rarely perform. When they do, however, it's usually a last-minute event, and the energy between these musical monsters is irrefutable.
Those who have witnessed these shows have walked away with the feeling that they've just heard 'the best band no one knows.' It's time to change that last part -

Hey y'all - I have been recovering from Pneumonia, and the meds I took to beat it brought me an extra gift - Thrush! So, you ARE Thrush and I HAVE Thrush! And it's a wicked hell-bomb of fire and damnation in your mouth!!! Y'all should write a song called "Tongue Acid"... or maybe I will. Hmmm. May chaos reign - PS - I want a cd!!!
Everyone but yourself... Hands down. Fucking hands down. So good. Male-led Muffs song for sure. Play it in my living room in February with The Figgs and Tenement. Gas money and home cooking abound! Do it!!!
