Santa Cruz (CD Single)
11.11.02
Virgin Records
The Thrills are: Connor Deasey (Vocals), Daniel Ryan (Guitar),
Podraic Mcmahon (Bass guitar), Ben Carrigan (Drums) and Kevin
Horan (Keyboards) and are the latest offering from virgin
records, Santa Cruz is their implausible debut single. Already
the single has invaded the radio waves and is due for release
on November the 11th.
I was rather shocked to hear The Thrills single, judging
by the name I was expecting another contribution to the Garage
rock scene, what I found was a super melodic slice of mellow
pie
this did shock me
. But I liked it!
Santa Cruz sounds like an intelligent blend between the orchestration
of The Beach Boys Pet Sounds with the melodic essence of The
Beatles or The Carpenters and just to top it off the vocals
of the Lead singer from The Flaming lips.
The Band who hail from Ireland played their first gig with
Morrissey at non other than the Royal Albert Hall, not a band
start for newcomers! The band are currently finishing the
recording of their album in LA.
