IMPORTANT BAND UPDATE - October 28, 2009
Hello All!
I know its been a while since you've heard from us but we're still alive and kickin' I assure you that!
You may or may not have noticed or heard the news we have so here it is:
The Thrifters have parted ways with guitarist Frank Frazza and vocalist Sergio McCollam. Frank has moved out of state to pursue other life goals and will be missed immensely. Sergio is also pursuing his own solo stuff which is rumored to be out around Christmas time this year.
We wish both of these gentlemen the best of luck in all that they do!
With that being said - where does that leave The Thrifters?
Well Steve-O, Chris, and Colin have been deep in discussion about the future plan for the band and I assure you that this band with survive and thrive!
We are currently practicing, writing, and recording with plans to have a solid EP within the next half year and get ready to start playing some shows again!
We might be playing out at random events to test out our new tunes and see what ya'll think so stay tuned for that as well!
We currently have a few new songs recorded and are working to fine tune them and might release a little teaser in the near future for you to hear the new sound of the Thrifters!
As of now, we are not actively trying to replace any band member. We are testing out the trio formula and it seems to be going killer so far! But plans change, so if you sing and play guitar simultaneously let us know!
We know all of you die hards fans will be bummed about the loss of members but something good will come of this I assure you!
Get Ready!
Colin
