New-wave Indie/Punk band ‘The Thermals’ play The ’Stro at UNE

 

band

The Thermals are a three-piece alternative/indie/punk band hailing from Portland, Oregon in the United States. March will see them heading to Australia for a series of gigs across the east coast.


The ’Stro, University of New England is fortunate to play
host to this new and exciting sound on Wednesday, March 10. Tickets are available from www.bigtix.com.au www.oztix.com.au
Their new record is called Now We Can See and the first single off the album is the title track ‘Now We Can See’ which is getting air play across the radio waves.
“We think it’s pretty good!  Pret-ty, pret-ty, pret-ty good.  Not only are the songs filled with some of our smartest lyrics and sweetest melodies, but the recording is, for us, another great leap in fidelity (you might even call it hi-fidelity), thanks to producer John Congleton (Explosions In The Sky, Polyphonic Spree), who brought massive amounts of sound and bombastic style to the project,” said band member Kathy Foster.
“Any band that starts a song with a whoah-e-oh and then kicks into a classic indie guitar riff has got my vote. Add that they’re from musical wonderland, Portland, Oregon and it’s a win all round,” Zan Rowe, Triple J.
This is an opportunity to see new and emerging indie/punk from the home of alternative music in the United States.
