THE THIRST

Ronnie Wood of 'The Rolling Stones' released 'The Thirst's debut album 'On The Brink', which saw the 4-piece 'electric-groove' band from Brixton tour across Europe, Mexico, Japan & Chile. 'The Thirst' have played some major venues & festivals around the world - receiving rave reviews from a performance at SXSW Austin Texas, as well as being chosen to represent England at Festival Internacional de la Canción in Vina Del Mar. Along with main stage festival appearances at Glastonbury, Isle of Wight Festival, Hyde Park Calling, and a gig in their hometown, London, performing at the prestigious Royal Albert Hall.

With a string of explosive live shows across the globe, 'The Thirst' are consistently rated as one of the UK's best live bands. In recent years the band have been main support for major artists across the world including 'The Rolling Stones, 'The Sex Pistols' & 'The Libertines', as well as being joined live on stage by UK artists Wiley & Kano.

Brothers Mensah & Kwame Hart, along with childhood friends Mark Lenihan and Marcus Harris, make up ‘The Thirst’. Deeply influenced by their Afro-Caribbean upbringing, their parents’ old punk records and influences from ska, indie, drum and bass, hip-hop, rock, funk & soul and all that goes in-between. They are especially inspired by Prince and Jimi Hendrix, embodying the fiery tones of those who refuse to be labelled. ‘The Thirst’ are the sound of today’s guitar wielding youth, renowned in their own right for their electrifying live performance.

2014 sees the release of the band's 2nd album, and the return of 'The Thirst' plus support tbc
